I seized these bearings... and I didnt notice... and... kept on ridding... and.... then.... the whole rear end starts wobbling... cause the carrier's now seized too. then... I noticed something's wrong.

...ahh... my fault. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] failed to maintance that area since I bought it last year... (learned not to nelgect the fact that it needs some loving' maintenance all over)

I tried to remove the axle... but I'm having one obstacle that stops me from removing it. How do you remove the axle?!!

I removed the brake, the disc, etc.. but they wont come off, so I figured I have to move the chain sprocket then. but the chain sprocket's gotten this clip that......that I can't seem to take off... How do ya'll do this?

If you have the service manual it explains how to remove the axle. The axle comes out the right side. You have to remove the clip at the axle lock nut. Pull the brake hub off. Axle will come out right side.

 

If you have taken everything off and it still will not come out then one of the bearings may have seized on the axle too. If that is the case then the axle may have to be replaced.

 

take a sturdy chunk of wood, put it in front of the left hand side of the axle, and take say a 20 pound sledge hammer and the ***** will come out in a hurry....

 

Yes, beat on it with a hammer!

 

make sure you remove the snap ring too, and don't mess it up. I bent mine getting my axle off and haven't been able to find a new one ANYWHERE!!!! All the stuff on the left side of the axle comes off to pull the whole thing out.
