tappered wheel bearing install from ball bearings
First pull was from 15 to 100mph. Second pull was from 40 to 95mph. Outside temperature was 87F, boost pressure was set at 36psi taper to 30-31psi at redline. Car is fully road tuned, but plan on putting it on a dyno to extract the remainder power left in it. The vehicle runs on E85 fuel and is a daily driver. Estimated power level in this video approx 590whp and 540wtq.
Ok, here it is finally. A few of you have requested this procedure so here it is. As I said in the video I normally use a different method of removing the hub from the bearing assembly by using a slide hammer. I also normally use a press to reinstall the hub into the new bearing instead of hitting it with a hammer. Life is not perfect and we sometimes have to improvise as I did here. I know a few of you will ask about the size fasteners that I used to hammer the bearing out, I used hardened (8.8) 10×1.25 bolts to do the job. I also promised links to the other videos that relate to this one so here they are. “Oops, Axle Ball Joint Replacement” www.youtube.com and also “How to Replace Honda Captive Rotors” www.youtube.com As always you can visit me at EricTheCarGuy.com ericthecarguy.com Thanks again to all that have subscribed and left such great comments on my videos and my channel, you are the best, I mean it.

These bearing should be cleaned annually and checked frequently if you are stunting or practicing wheeliies
With such a lyrical name, I was expecting great things from this reel. I wasn’t disappointed in the least. The X 5500 is a great reel for the distance casts required for sea fishing. Regardless of your fishing style, I’m confident you’ll appreciate many of the thoughtful features and functions designed into the X 5500. One thing I noticed right away is a spool taper that facilitates the high speed line release that’s the signature of an effective cast. The travelling line guard prevents tangles.
Features of the Daiwa Windcast X 5500 Reel
This reel is fitted with a high impact (HIP) line clip and has an inbuilt cushion on the pin that allows for secure and consistent line location with every cast. Other features include AirBail, which is a hollow bail arm that helps reduce the reel’s overall weight. Another feature I appreciate is Daiwa’s TwistBuster technology that reduces line twist by way of a special collar and tapered line roller. The roller is designed to reduce line twist caused by rotor rotation. I also like the innovative, patented DIGIGEAR digital gear design that provides superior smoothness and an amazing amount of power. The CastLock system ensures accurate placement of the line. The reel comes with a spare spool as well.
More About the X 5500 Reel
Like other reels in the line, the X 5500 has a quick drag (QD) function that allows me to operate the reel between free spool and drag engaged with less than a single turn of the drag knob. The X 5500 will hold 440 metres of 15 pound test line. It weighs 21.5 ounces and has a retrieve ratio of 4.9:1. I feel this reel is a good value for the price, which is 149.99, but do look for it on special, especially on the Internet, for as low as 114.99. This reel is in the middle of the Windcast line and has five CRBBs (corrosion resistant ball bearings).
About Daiwa
Daiwa has a manufacturing facility in the UK that is one of the most highly advanced production facility outside Asia. For this reason, I’m partial to Daiwa products. The company is driven by innovation and quality, and their products conform to the highest standards possible in design, materials and manufacturing.
For my money, the Daiwa Windcast X 5500 fixed spool reel is a superior piece of sea fishing tackle.
