• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

:thumbsup:well done on the updated site,looks good.hope everyone in husky land having a good day,im covered in oil,which means im having fun trying to remove the rear sproket:(.it seems someone has put back old bolts when they changed the sproket,they will tighten buy to losen there just slipping,ive crack hand once already,any help,by the way i dont have the small cutting tool to cut nut off,thanks steve
p.s sorry about spelling on tittle,should read rounded but i cant edit the top?
 
To remove and tighten the sprocket bolts always turn the nut and just hold the bolt stationary. If the socket heads are rounded, you may as well invest in a small die grinder or Dremel.

thanks,you are saying to use the hex to just hold and tighten up the nut?,i was holding nut with grips and used a hex key and long bar to do it,ive done it now,remembered to warm them up(dads tip)so with hairdryer i warmed each bolt and they started to spin
