We're in full-on reassembly mode now. The rear hubs arrived -- one replacement, one spare, for one low price! Installing them wasn't too bad.
There is still the slightest bit of in/out play on the passenger side even with the replacement hub. Not sure what that's about. And it looks like there are already Speedi-sleeves on both sides, too, so those are now sitting on the shelf. Attaching the half-shaft seemed to cinch that up so I guess the play it's not super concerning, particularly given the amount of usage our little car will likely be seeing. Famous words, I'm sure...
Overhauling the rear end was such an extended effort that we ended up with an intimidating amount of video to work through. Much like the project itself, breaking it up into pieces and then reassembling them into a whole has been the best approach to keeping the episodes flowing. The bottle is uncorked now, so you can look forward to lots more videos to be published over the next couple of weeks!
