noob Shimming after bearing replacement - 10.07.2007, 04:04 PM

Hi !
Need to replace my axelbearings on my Revo 3.3
I tried one side but I can pull the axel in/out quite alot after I put in the new bearings is installed.

Am I correct in assuming that I need to put some shims in between the axelpin and outerbearing/axelcarrier ?

Really no one has any ideas ?
To make it a bit more clear, after the bearing replacement I can push/pull the wheel in and out quite abit, and the axel (in where I put the wheel nut on) is moving so it not just that I havent tighten the wheel nut.

Any ideas at all if shimming is needed or if this is "another" problem ?

when you actually mount the tire/wheel on it and tighten it up, 99% of the play should be gone. When its just sitting on the bench without the wheel, that play is normal


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES
