HELP Where does the rear axel bushing / sleve go IN MEXICO FLAT REPAIR

[Zepfan]

There is a large 2 1/2" long x axel diameter sleve that I can't figure out where it came from !!!

I've had the rim off several times and never saw it and this time it was left on axel.

Where does this spacer go??

Returning from Beleize, first flat. 300 mi from texas. Got the flat fixed now this fricking sleve / bushing is killing me!

I don't see where the f'er goes. Call me stupid and...................... wanting to get back in the U.S.

Tire repair went well....... patch failed, he didn't want to pull the tire again so he plugged. Left my tube at home!

 

[Zepfan]

HELP.....anyone.

 

[Zepfan]

On the parts dia. I still dont see it. It's not 5, that's captured between berrings. It's not 12, there is no space, it's too long.

r u saying it is something that's not in the schematic?

can u send a pict so we can try and identify/associate/locate it for u/us.

next post - ok, wasn't fully logged in, I see the pict now. sure looks like 5, but w/ a collar, hmmm

If your axle slides over it, it probably goes inside the hub.

 

[Zepfan]

ok got it, spacer inside hub / splines. thought it felt too loose to go there. never came out before! texas bound!

Good man, looks like a great trip. Carry on. ::001::

Here you see the spacer in the cardan. Put some grease around the spacer and put the thinner part of the spacer at first.

As your looking into the rear end with the wheel off, from the brake side. Grease the tube that your talking about and slide it into the rear end as far as you can get it, with the collar towards the brake side.

It goes in the middle of the hub. between the wheel bearings. It's called a bearing spacer

 

[Wanderer]

Howdy,
It can't be the bearing spacer unless he pulled his wheel bearings too. That is the only way that spacer comes out. It is the one that goes into the final drive unit #37.
Later,
Norm

I stand corrected. It is in fact the collar that goes into the final drive assembly.

Most of the time, this big spacer tends to stay in the final drive pumpkin, but there is nothing preventing it from falling out. And since we're discussing rear wheel changing gotchas, another one is to make sure the carrier that engages the cushions in the wheel hub stays with the wheel hub rather than staying with the final drive. (On a chain drive bike, this piece would be called the sprocket carrier - don't know what it is called on the S10.) As I move the wheel to the right to extricate it from the final drive, I keep a big screwdriver handy to use as a wedge between the final drive and this piece to make sure it stays with the wheel. If you attempt to remove the wheel by disengaging it at the cushions, the cushions tend to go everywhere and can make the wheel very hard to remove.

Good reminder about that tip, Mark. One that I forgot last time that caused me a bit of grief is to put the bike in gear before removing the wheel. It helps to keep the final drive gear in place which has aided me in getting the teeth on the hub to line up with the final drive as I re-install the wheel. It seems that if it is in neutral it may be able to move a bit, making it more difficult getting things to mesh when I am putting it back together.

And the other tip that has been mentioned here before regarding installing the rear axel temporarily from the left side part way in, and then slide the wheel/spline assembly on to the axel to help it line up into the final drive. Remove the axel once wheel is installed and reinstall from the right side. Makes installing the wheel much easier. ::008::

So that's why it took me about ten trys with huge amounts of cussing and sore arms to get my wheel to engage the splines last time I changed the rear tire! Great tip, thanks.
