That reminds me of my father inlaw. He needed new axle bearings on his 9 inch from his 81 F-150. We yanked the axles, went to the shop to get the bearings pressed off, they said $13.00 for each axle. He freaked, spazzed on them saying that it would only take a second for each axle, how can they charge 13.00 a second? I just laughed at him. We left and spent 2 days looking for steel, all the scrapyards we could think of. Finally we had all the parts gathered up and he started to build his own press. Took him 2 weeks of steady cutting grinding and fabbing, 300.00 in materials. Everytime I went over, wife and I were dating at the time so it was everyday. He was working on this stupid thing. Finally he got it done, and pressed out his bearings. Said to **** if the think I am paying 13.00 an axle for a frigging bearing. You should see this thing is huge, you can probably get a chevy pickup in there on end and flatten it. He has used it maybe 4 or 5 times since. That was about 10 years ago.
