I have afew questions about removing the axle, which way do i pull it out, foot brake side, or shifter side. Also what is there to doing it, is it fairly simple, any tips would be appreciated, thanks a lot

 

Take off the wheels & hubs off.
loosen the set screws(2) on the side and the adjuster screws(2) on top.
give the axle a couple of kicks forward.
pull the axle out from the shifter side and ur done!
Remember to use new cotter pins when putting the hubs back on!

 

If you're still not sure there's a good article in this months issue of dirtwheels that has pics. Good luck.

 

wow, thanks for the quick replies. Sounds pretty simple, ill give it a go this weekend. Ill let yas know how i make out. Thanks again

 

Its real simple. My first one took about an hour because I didn't know about the set screw...D'OH!!!! My second one took about 15 minutes. Any problems or questions...just ask here.....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

 

The set screws you are talking about, are they the little allen key head things in the outside axle nut?????? thanks

 

correct.....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]

 

One more quick question. Will my chain, sprocket, brake rotor all have to be taken off before the axle can be roved??? Or can some be removed after the axle has been pulled out. Thnaks again

 

The sprocket and chain will stay in place, but hold it on with your hand while pulling the axle out. The sprocket is sitting on a lip, so it will stay, but is on loosely.....[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img] The rotor will stay on.....
