DUNEDEMON Posted March 10, 2004 Report Posted March 10, 2004 If the axle has excessive end play start by making sure your lock nut is tight. If you end up replacing the bearings a press will help. Quote
Holyman Posted March 12, 2004 Report Posted March 12, 2004 It could also be the pivot bearings. I can get you a set if you need 'em. Quote

evil Posted March 13, 2004 Report Posted March 13, 2004 explain to me about pivot bearings..never heard of em those are the bearings that go in the swing arm where it attaches to the frame at the back of the motor. Quote

Is the axle moving in the carrier, or is the whole axle/swingarm unit moving? The bearings in the carrier are easy to get out and even easier to get back in. I use a rubber mallet type hammer to gently coerce them in. They go right in, no prob. Quote
squish Posted April 3, 2004 Report Posted April 3, 2004 mine werent that easy. I had to freeze my bearings and torch the carrier. They finally went in after that. Quote
