94-97 how to replace front wheel stud? DIY?

yeah, a 3 leg (crow's foot) puller is usually for anything riding on a
central shaft... they work by putting pressure against the backside of
the object you're trying to remove, which is done by applying pressure
to the front side of the object it's riding on... simply put, there is
no center "shaft" in a hub bearing.... so no, it wouldn't work w/o
modifying the design of the pulling... which completely defeats the
purpose of using it.

 

I apologize for saying that incorrectly, I should have mentioned that
the pressure spec is 100-115 lb/ft^2 (the amount of pressure applied to
release the bolt)

Jim Beam, before posting an arguement, whether you're right or not,
read your own posted links... b/c you're actually right about the
torque versus pressure thing, but wrong about the factor of
multiplication.

taken from wiki article "torque":
Since energy can be thought of as the result of "force times distance",
energy is always a scalar whereas torque is "force cross distance" and
so is a (pseudo) vector-valued quantity.

Force cross distance refers to a 1:1 relationship, hence, no
multiplication or division, no adding or subtracting.

 

You are still adrift here.

100 ft.lbs of torque (turning moment) may be acheived by pulling
1 lbforce on a 100ft bar or 100lbforce on a 1ft bar or 25lbforce
on a 4ft bar or ANY combination which results in a PRODUCT
of 100ft.lbs..

HTH

 

The "confusion" that I experienced when I misquoted was that I
transposed the theories of "torque manipulation" and "force exertion"
since torque can be displayed as an application of pressure, in terms
that pressure can be translated as force...

Either way, this thread has reached it's pinnacle of usefulness, and
we're way off topic...

 

By the way, simple equation for a math scholar to check out algorithmic
programs for accuracy: [(e^(pi)) - (pi)]

The answer should always come to 20... unless your Floating Point
Handlers have rounding errors. This is standard to test your system for
data compliance.

And in case you're wondering, about 10 seconds.

 

no dude. you're confusing force with pressure. when you wrench, that's
/force/. torque is force times leverage. pressure is force /divided/
by sq ft. at some time or other, we've all had teachers we've
subsequently learned to have gotten stuff wrong - you had one of those.

 

Look... you're now argueing with yourself... that little blurb came
right from the article that you pointed me to... on wiki... meaning
that you didn't even know what you were posting...

"Force cross Distance" is the proper terminology for torque... meaning
that the relationship is 1:1.

As far as what you're saying, I understand that, and I already
corrected myself for... The place that confused me isn't on you to
decide, I'm quite well aware of what I mistook.

 

do you always insult people trying to help you?

it's not "Force cross Distance" it's 'force x distance' or 'force times
distance' or 'force multiplied by distance' or even 'force.distance'.
it's a math thing. and there's no way that means "1:1".

also, life would be easier if you used a proper news reader to access
this group - the web forum portal you're using is not threading properly.

 

dude... that "force cross distance thing" CAME FROM THE ARTICLE THAT YOU
POSTED... could you be more ignorant? Since it came from the article
that YOU POSTED WHILE TRYING TO PROVE ME WRONG, that must mean that you
also were wrong, since you were quoting an unknown or unchecked source..
*and yes, when you post a website for research purposes, you are, in
fact, quoting it.* And now, after all, to add to the stupidity, you're
debating with material taken IN CONTEXT from your source... you may be
smart enough to catch the follies of those who don't stay up late at
night planning every single word they type, like you, but you're still
not intelligent enough to realize that A) your kind of help isn't
welcome, and B) no matter how much you want to believe that you're
always correct about everything, you're not.

Did I hit pretty close to home there? GOOD. Stop tearing this thread to
shit b/c you feel like making yourself look smarter than you actually
are... ffs, I mis-posted a single damn word, and you're jumping all
over it like someone is going to die as a result of my inherent
penchance (sp) for mistyping small bits of info when I've just woken
after long nights of not sleeping BECAUSE I HAVE A LIFE, outside of
calling the most sophomoric mistakes of those attempting to save
someone some money becuase for ****'s sake, we all know that noone in
this country needs any more of that... <./sarcasm -off>

as far as using a better portal to access the thread... lmao.. I'm
using the site the damn thing is hosted on... it can't get much better
than that.

and as far as insulting the ppl trying to help me, YES I insult those
who give unsolicited help and then proceed to condescend the one who
didn't ask for the help in the first place....

so in closing, I"d just like to ask one thing... ARE YOU DONE YET?

 

newsgroups are not web portals. you email client almost certainly
contains usenet reader capability - and it will support threading.

no, "cross product" means "multiply". "force cross distance" means
"multiply" but as a vector - which is not of interest in this case.

but if you don't want to know, you don't want to know.

 

"Dude"... The thing ain't hosted on any site. This is a usenet
newsgroup, not a web forum. Just because google happens to also provide
access to it doesn't mean that they host it.

Actually, it IS hosted on a web server... it's called " www.automotive
forums.com " which is exactly where I get access to it.

Automotive Forums > Unmoderated Usenet Topics > Honda would be the
path FROM the server that this is HOSTED ON to get to this particular
area...

 

check out:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet

your access is via a portal - usenet is not hosted on a web server.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet#Web_interfaces

your portal is not threading correctly. if you use a proper news
reader, you will have a much better experience.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Usenet#Newsreader_clients

 

No, fuckhead, this is a usenet group. It is not hosted on any
particular server, and it is not accessible from the Web.

The forum that you are a member of has installed a web portal to the
news group. They do not host the group, they mirror it.

I think you just lost your argument. It is pretty clear that you are
intent on arguing points that you have absolutely no clue about. Have a
nice life, dipshit...

I'm quite aware of what usenet is, and how it's accessed... thank you.

This "mirror" that you speak of, well, it's an image... just like any
mirror.. it holds an "identical image of what is being mirrored"...
correct?

Now.. that would mean that although UseNet is not in fact hosted on a
webserver, this particular "mirror" is... so I'm still correct in that
sense..

Still, to end this petty bullshit, no matter who may have been wrong or
right, the point is that this thread has gotten so far off topic that
it's utterly worthless to continue posting.

I mentioned this earler, to no avail, in an attempt to end the
argument, which should never have started.. after finding that I
mis-quoted myself, I corrected myself, only to find that certain people
in this world are entirely unwilling to let something go as a mistake,
and must take time out of their lives to attempt to belittle others in
a futile effort to make themselves seem smarter.

It never works.

End it.. it's pointless, just get over it, and get back to your damn
lives.

 

It's always amusing to read posts by some totally oblivious poster. BTW,
I have a torque wrench, it's calibrated in Nm - does that mean it's not
metric?

I guess Car & Driver and Snap-On have it all wrong:

http://buy1.snapon.com/catalog/item.asp?P65=&tool=all&item_ID=55265&group_ID=954&store=snapon-store&dir=catalog

Maybe you should drop them an email and straighten them out? I'm sure
they'd be very grateful.

 

pounds per square foot?
That's the funniest shit I've read all week.

I guess that explains why torque wrenches are always inflatable.
