There are a few around town, mainly at the strip clubs! Nah, but I have a good mate who's Uncle Kerry has a bar stool with his name scratched into the wooden backrest, at the local Pub. Kerry has been drinking there every afternoon since he was 14 yrs old. He is now over 50 yrs old. He has been going there daily since the age of 15, over 35+ yrs without fail he reckons!!! He is a big boy, so they assumed he was over 18 yrs old when he was really 14 yrs old. They didnt check ID back in those days. I actually saw Uncle Kerry the other day. He is looking fit and well. I havent seen him for many years now and I asked if he still goes to the Barkly Pub for drinks every afternoon.........he replied with a "sh*t yeah!!" Lol! He is a local legend and NO ONE sits in his seat at the bar!! Some people have over the years I was told, but they were soon sorted out before Kerry ever got there.
Sounds like my old man he is 78 now been going to the same pub for the last 40 years, gets there at 4.12pm every day has 3 beers and leaves. If he doesnt turn up by 4.30 they send out a search party. He and a couple of his mates have a corner of the bar they call Jeriatric Park....
Shoulda called Fatso early on and borrowed his Loomis graphite rod to hold steady pressure on it while heating with a tourch. Works everytime
So brother Dave, do you suggest using anything behind the rotor so that is doesn't get stuck again? Anti-seize, grease, a rubber gasket?
I'd suggest that crap that goth uses for the O2 sensor threads. That story about PAP's uncle is enough to make me want to slide down there for a visit and pint.
Lol, Kerry is not my Uncle, he a friends Uncle. We all just call him Uncle Kerry! All my REAL Uncle's back in Greece couldnt afford a beer, let alone drinking at a pub for the last 35+ years daily! Its a tough gig back in the homeland.
Ohhh no! Not Brotherhood kinda brother.....we have a misunderstanding here.....there was a mistake Thinnest film of antiseize is all I do after all the rust is cleaned up. Another light coat on the outside to prevent the galvanic corrosion between the wheel and the rotor hat. Some have used Zinc Oxide paint but I do not like having any hard film between torqued surfaces that may in time break down and relax the clamping forces. Most antiseize is good for 2K+ degrees which is plenty good for the hat area of a rotor under most driving conditions and fluid enough to find a void to fill in and not "suspend" the hat from the hub.
