axle

  1. S

    Another Manco Thunderbird and a question.

    I picked this up for $175. It's complete and runs great with the original 3.5 tecumseh. There is about 1/8 inch of side to side play in each side of the rear axle. Is that normal or should I tighten the axle bolt to close the gap? Not sure if my picture worked. Thanks.

    Axle greese

    What do you guys use for axle grease on your mini's? Right now I've just put everything together on my builds temporarily just to see how it all fits and looks but I'll need to reinstall the wheels and greese up the axles when I'm ready for action here. What do you guys recommend?

    4" scooter wheels on a mini bike ???

    Has anybody used them before ??? Looks like you could use a #35 60 tooth blank sprocket and drill it to fit. Not sure about axle size though. Would a 5/8" axle fit ???

    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...
