Axel, Carrier

[ds41]

i just put a couple of new parts on the shee, and now when put back on my axel its wobbly and when i tighten the axel nut it gets stuck and doesnt want to rotate, i have a stock axel and a after market bearing carrier what do you think it might be

[BenBB]

Is it tapered bearing or twin row (ball) bearing? You sure the spacer is in place in the center of the carrier between the bearings? If it didn't come with one you need to reuse the stocker. If it's tapered bearings you don't want to torque the piss out of it either, I forget the exact procedure but someone else probably can tell ya, something like tighten to X ft-lbs and then back off a quarter turn or some shit. Good luck.

Ya, you need to torque it down and then back it off. It tell you in your clymer's what the torque specs are and how far to loosen it up. You also want to put a little locktite on the axle nuts. Even with twin row bearing you can overtighten them if you really reef on them..............
