[QUOTE="kohl_cytre, post: 66454, member: 7873"] I'm doing some reading on pre-loading of the axel bearings. When I replaced the rims on my machine I did notice a slight lateral push pull movement in the wheel hub during the pulling of the rim and after when I simply tugged on the axel hub. I'm guessing this is the issue that pre-loading resolves. My service manual says the pre-load should be set to 0 on the axels. So that means tighten the axel nut till the moment that lateral movement disappears right? Any more and the pre-load will become to severe and can cause the bearings to fail right? Maybe someone can conform or deny my suspicions. [/QUOTE]
