I recently purchased a new front axle for my 1984 200x and when I put the new bearings in, the bearing on the brake disc side of the hub seems to have recessed farther than the original, do I have the wrong bearing or am I missing something?

 

Welcome to the forums, Knowsalot or ThrashandCrashUntilsItsTrash will reply soon. They are 2 of the most knowledgable on the 200X I've noticed. Or you can PM either one of them.

 

Bikebandit has an awesome veiw of how the front axle is suppose to be set up. I bet if you check it out you might find your problem.
