hello again well after i put on my new chain i tried adjusting it but it would not move so i kicked the rear tires forward and there out of there bind the lines match up now but do i need new axle bearing?what brand or type do you recomend?and where to buy them from? a little history of my whole problem my chain fell of the rear sprocket and broke my front sprocket i just bought new front rear sprocket and chain was it my axle bearing all along?




THANK YOU

 

yeah mine are going every 5 months or so

 

IMHO, if you dont plan on keeping the machine then just replace the bearings with stockers.
If you do plan on keeping it, I recommend you replace the whole bearing carrier and go with the automotive style tapered bearings with hardened seats. Its gonna set you back a little over $200.00 but its well worth it. You wont have to replace your bearings for a long time. Just grease em and adjust em once in a while.

 

sounds like you didnt have your chain adjusted properly. I picked up some bearings and seals on ebay for 21.00 shipped i thought that was a good deal. when you have the rear end off the ground pick up on the tire move it up and down and left to right if there is alot of play you need bearings and i would recommend the seals also.

 

should i get the metal or the rubber shields

thank you
