I SWEAR TO GOD I CAN'T STAND THESE STUPID ******* PEOPLE WHO CALL THEMSELVES MECHANICS!
;WOEAIFJAW;ono
took my rotors and hubs to get them seperated last night... i get to the machine shop... (engine rebuilding place + automotive machine shop) i tell the guy what needed to be done and how to do it. He goes... no problem... simple as pie.
******* idiot took a sledge hammer and started to try to pound the hub off the rotor by hitting a stud. This was before i could walk to the back to see what was going on. Next thing i know the stupid ****** smashed the stud off the rotor since it was only press fit. At the moment i didn't think other wise and i took a punch his vice and a hammer and hammered the stud back in.
Now the ******* stud is ruined. The ******* threads are fucked. And i can't get a stupid lug nut to go over the ******* stud. **** THESE ******* IDIOTS!!!!!!!
WHY CAN'T I FIND A GOOD MECHANIC IN TORONTO!!!!!!!!!!! I HATE THIS ******* CITY.
best of all i can't get the damn ABS sensor gear off the hub because the stupid allen key screws are corroded and trying to unscrew them meant destroying the damn head... AH!!!!!!
I think i'm going to cry

I'm my own mechanic too... no one touches my car...
but there are times when you can't do things yourself... i don't have a 20 ton hydraulic press.
I tried putting in a vice with a sledge hammer over the lip of hte hub to try to press the hub off the rotor by squeezing it together... but it woudn't budge
