Thanks much to all for the help/advice. I referenced the placement of the axle with cotter pin hole and paint marker before I pulled it, put it back in, couple light taps and it seems ok. Will be able to test tomorrow and if spinning with no problems I'll put in the new hub, torque to 250 with friend's torque wrench minding 3/16" hub clearance, check endplay and if all's cool I"ll take it to a shop to have retorqued. Possibly another stupid question: Initial torque to attach hub with or without wheel on? Start it without then put tire on? When this works out I'm buying all you guys a beer- Johnny _________________________________________________________________ [1]Stay in touch with old friends and meet new ones with Windows Live Spaces References 1. http://g.msn.com/8HMAENUS/2737??PS=47575 _______________________________________________ AMC-List mailing list AMC-List@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.amc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/amc-list or go to http://www.amc-list.com
