mrgreene Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 Noticed a squeak coming from lh rear tire,gave it a shake and it has a lot of play. Removed the hub and looks like the axle splines are worn pretty bad as well as the hub spines! I went around axle spline a few times with Teflon tape and it tightened up but I know its a temp fix. Is there any other fixes then replacing the whole works? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starwriter Posted October 1, 2013 Report Share Posted October 1, 2013 A while back, Lonestar was closing out their rear hubs, that have pinch bolts, for about $100. If the axle splines are only a little bit worn, you could call Lonestar and see if they have any left. Remember there's 2 different wheel bolt patterns for Banshee. If the splines are severely worn, junk the axle and hub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbooker82 Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 If you only replace one part your only fixing 1/2 the problem. I always put red lock tight on splines. It dries and keeps the splines from chewing on each other. Kind of like a glue that you can knock appart with a hammer. Just make sure you let it dry before riding.

NYUK Posted October 2, 2013 Report Share Posted October 2, 2013 if the hub and axle are trash, weld it, buy a new one when you get the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
