    live axle question

    On a live axle setup with threaded ends on the axle and keyed wheels, what keeps the wheel from sliding in toward the bearing blocks? I'm assuming you need to put a locking collar on the axle just inside the wheel but can't really find any reference to show me that. I'm putting together a...

    Live Axle: Advantages?

    Hello, For my next build, I am considering going with a live axle. It seems to me that it would be a lot easier in some ways like spacing, etc. to have everything keyed and use locking collars. Obviously there is more fabrication involved making bearing plates, etc. but I have to make new...

    live axle + steering = no good

    I made a adult trike with Honda engine. Fun to ride, turns alot of heads but doesn't turn for nothing. Any idea on how to weight the front end down to make turns easier? If I lean on front end it will turn going slow. At cruising speed it turn much easier. Never did a hi speed hair pin turn...

    Live axle bearing "nipple" question

    Just ordered and received a 1" live axle setup from BMI. I can't figure out what the little "nipple" is on the bearing outside race or why the bearing flanges won't go over it when bolted to the mount. Secondly, is there a reason why one of the flanges would be stamped "C" and the other "D"...
