98 txt rear hub damage
I had been noticing some noise that I couldn't pinpoint. Assumed it was front wheel bearings but upon inspection today they seem fine. Lifted the back end and found lots of play in the rear wheels. One side in particular. I could slide the hub in and out close to 1/8". After a good deal of beating I got the hub off. The splines are in rough shape. Castle nut had the key in it so I guess it was never torqued. Good news is the axle splines seem ok. Anything else I should look for while I'm ordering parts?

Check the other side too. Make sure the axle bearing is not bad. Torque the nut to 140lb's you should be good

Re: 98 txt rear hub damage
The odd thing is when I found it loose I tightened it up. The castle nut was so far in the cotter key would not have engaged. Missing a part?

Re: 98 txt rear hub damage
Both washers were in place.
New hub arrived today. Brakes rub a little but I assume I'll burn off the high spot? |
