To remove the ball joints "loosen the nut but don't remove it completely then with a heavy metal hammer smack the component where the ball joint thread has been passed through" whilst pushing the tie rod shaft up with your hand, it will just pop up. also you can whack pretty hard you wont break it. If you look at it you should see slight dents on it already from previous ball joint replacements.

So glad your channel came up in my youtube algorithm. I did my conscription as a mechanic on these vehicles, and seeing this brings back a lot of memories. In service these vehicles would be serviced after each and every exercise, so there should be minimal wear. On the other hand, they were driven by a bunch of 19 year olds who weren't paying the fuel themselves. Just a word of caution. The original brake shoes did contain asbestos, and depending on how old these are they might do too. The dust on the drum and carrier plate might as well. I'd wear a respirator when doing work on old parts like these. You have already found biltema, another tip is Jula, which is also at svågertorp shopping area, they quite a bit of tools, both name brand and cheaper stuff.

Word of advice that i learnt during my automotive apprenticeship, take an old bit of cardboard and poke some small holes in it and then when you remove a bolt put it in the cardboard and write what it's for. It actually creates a bit of a timeline so when you reassemble you can work your way back along the cardboard opposite to when you put the bolts/clips in

Or better yet, just put em in plastic bags or containers with handwritten notes on em. The cardboard tends to break.

When installing bearing rings, I use the old one as a perfect mallet extentioner, but I reduce the outer diameter slightly by holding it loosely running on a belt sander before cleaning it and then using it to press the new bearing ring into place. As it is slightly smaller after grinding, it won't get stuck in the hole, but still doing an perfect press on the new.

Packing stuff with grease seems very likely when it comes to the swedish military haha. When I was a conscript a couple of years ago we used to service all the vehicles, and some of the points on the checklist were always to grease everything, cover everything rusty in oil, and wash the vehicles at least once a year to ridiculously clean standards. If there is one thing they were good at there, it was cleaning and rust protecting stuff. Service is usually taken very seriously, so I guess most mechanical things can be assumed to be in pretty good shape unless it was damaged after the vehicle was retired from the military.

I drove the TGB 13 during my military service in 1987. I remember we could drive quite comfortably and fast off-road thanks to the three axles. TGB 11 was much bumpier. As a result, the leaders at the military exercises preferred to hitchhike with the TGB13, which gave our group some advantages and grateful breaks when we had week-long exercises in the field :) I also remember that you can start TGB.s by sticking your name tag (steel ) between a couple of the fuses.. Which meant that the TGB.n was not always in the same place as you put it..

A tip for Oakley to check out. In Sweden there is a thing called ”Öppen förskola” (translated into ”open preschool” - but sometimes called ”open playgroups” by english expats in SE). They are typically open a few hours daily and are intended to be a place for toddlers (0-3yrs ish) and their parents (usually on parental leave) to socialise and play. Part of the time might be organised with singing and such and part is just hanging out. These are open for all (free of charge), and is “drop in” during opening hours

To separate tapered connections like tie rod ends, undo the nuts but do not remove. Leave the nut on the last lot of the threads, gives you a greater surface are for you to hit with a hammer or apply force to the tie rod end. Use the jack to apply pressure to the tie rod bolt with 2 hammers, simultaneously strike the cast bit of the hub where the tapered tie rod end is lodged.

Following your rebuild. Very Nice work. I have a Pinzgauer and a Land-Rover FC101 At one moment (time 49:00 min) you mentioned you cleaned/polished the inside of the brake drums. Perhaps it was not literally polished. I interpreted you wrong. I was taught than when fitting new brake shoes, to check the inside diameter of the drum-brake to ensure they are with in spec and you have enough material. I believe yours will certainly be good. Then take the drums to a brake shop or engineering works to have the inside of the skimmed on the lathe. That ensure "roundness" and a proper surface for the new brake pads to bed in. Not trying to critique. Just think polishing a brake surface is not the best (if I understood it correctly) Perhaps just double check on that as it is a critical safety thing for you and family. Keep up the build. It's very exciting.

If changing a flat tyre, I will always leave the flat tyre and rim under the vehicle for the chassis or body to land on if the jack fails or topples. Cheers.

To remove the bearing cups, look from the inner side of the hub assembly. You should be able to see about 1 to 2 mm of the back of the inner part of the bearing cup. Using a brass rod or a rod of metal softer than the bearing cup and using the rod like a punch on the visible edge of bearing cup, using a solid hammer on the rod, punch the bearing cup working your way around the bearing cup. I suggest moving around the bearing cap every 45 to 90 deg, tapping the bearing cap out. Be mindful not to strike the surface where the bearing was seated or the inside surface the bearing cup will be sliding on. It is harder to replace the cup. My practice was to grind the outside circumference of the bearing, reducing the outside diameter of the bearing cup, so that the cup Wil freely slide in and out of the hub. Cool the bearing cup in a freezer and then put the cup in place and working around the then edger of cup, tap into place so it is going square. Once it is started use your old modified bearing and continue tapping the cup into place and is soundly set in place. You will hear a definite change in the sound has you strike the old cup.

From my (5 years) experience with 3in1 it takes up to 3 days to be completely dry. After that the paint is really resistant against scratches.
