There use a special tool for pressing the hubs apart. I made my own based on the ford tool. Hopefully the shop you took it to has something like that.

I raced my festy at the Autox today. It was a blast, even with crappy tires I was able to come within 1 sec of my buddy who drives a suby on race rubber. I need to find some springs to get it a little lower without losing contact on full extension. The car sits too high with 13"s

Did you do the front bearing/rotor yourself?

Nah, pulled the knuckle and took it to a shop for the bearings. I took a big hammer, started to drive them out, but I cant stand using a hammer on bearings. Mine were a pretty tight press fit.
I quizzed some shops about the bearings first, and the guy that knew about the Festy bearings and shims got the job! An old time drag car builder.
Cost $70

Tinted the drivers side rear window. 2 down & the hatch to go Saved the hardest for the last since I never applied tint b4. Side windows turned out nice but a little worried on the hatch from horror stories of creases. Anyone got any tips?

Put on lower control arms and tie-pod ends. Noticed they were bad when changing the rotors 2 weeks ago, but money only goes so far, so I had to wait til I got more of it. lol

So, in the past 2 weeks......
-new front wheel bearings(Timken)
-new rotors
-new calipers
-new brake pads
-new lower control arms
-new tie-rods
-new cv boots and re-packed cv joints
-DIY alignment, runs straight and true

now...its time to look at the rear brakes/suspension

added a new Festiva to the fleet. my wife said if I found an auto she would drive it. so be it, there is now a green 93GL auto car here now. the old suburban will soon be retired due to gas consumption and near $4 per gallon to fill up.

.... Why don't you do that, I for one, I think, would appreciate seeing it!!

I really aught to take a video of my paper route and all my trooper festy endures day in and day out.

Anyone interested?

Pulled my turbo off to check if oil is coming out of my exhaust ports.

Installed a pillar gauge pod. Still haven't fixed my tach so it remains. This isn't finished product this was in test fitting stage. But you get the point.

Finally finished the aspire swap but I'm having an issue with the right brake caliper binding up. I replaced the caliper and it is still doing it, I suspect the caliper mounting ears on the knuckle may be bent. Also properly torqued all the wheel bearings and greased my poly torsion beam bushings.
