    basic noob trailer plug question

    Mini skid idler bearing removal

    That's been our experience no snap rings and no moving parts on what's left. Just a tight fit with surface rust, pretty wild how strong that holds.

    Mini skid idler bearing removal

    Looked back at an older thread and @Reach you mentioned heating the housing then cold water dousing the spindle. I'll give that a go tomorrow. Any sweet rigs to use a jack/press without pushing on the opposite track rail??

    Mini skid idler bearing removal

    Should ICE follow the constitution?

    If only those in politics lost their jobs when empty promises and lies stacked up. The BS our country's system allows, on all sides, is embarrassing. Especially when as inhumane as this.
