Re: How to Replace Muffler Bearings
Any time I need to replace a Muffler Bearing, I dig out my "Sky Hook" and use it to lift the car high enough that I don't need to bend over...When I acquire the correct replacement, I make sure it has a Zerk Fitting so it can be serviced from time to time along with the rest of the chassis components under the vehicle

I tried to do this, but I couldn't find my left-handed screwdriver. I ordered a new one from amazon, but they mixed up my order and sent me a case of pronouns instead

I prefer the sealed ones. Never had a problem.

Re: How to Replace Muffler Bearings
Should I wait for Richard 1 to recommend a lubricant for my muffler bearings..., or should I just wait for AI Bots to figure it out?
Anyone else getting utterly annoyed at these bots? The internet is full of idiots. So, what are they "algorithm-ing" to seek perfection??? The bot muffler bearing reply is why I wouldn't want a Dr. relying on AI to operate on me anytime soon!

"To swap out muffler bearings, you need some special tools. First, take off the muffler and get rid of the old bearing. Then, put in a new one. Watch out for seals, they can get hurt."

Yes, it is, but it does have a sense of humor!
