• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Mine were shot too, but not due to dirt or grease breaking down. The race developed a knotchy surface early on, maybe they got loose, or maybe there was dirt in there early on. Later the grease was clean but the notchiness got really annoying so I replaced the lower bearing. A real bitch to do - hope I don't have to do it again. :busted:

I borrowed the right tool, a flared, split tube, to drive out the races, and the lower inner race is much easier to drive off the pivot tube if you just go ahead and rip off the cage/rollers. There's a nice lip there to drive on with a chisel instead of destroying the seal trying to pry it off.
