Stub axel question.

Post by vintage racer »

Can somebody please tell me if the stub axel unscrews or is it a pushed fit.I see it has a hex but I can seem to budge it.

it just pushes in. they can be subborn sometimes, though. try setting it on top of a vise with the jaws opened just enough to let the axle slide in between. then knock it out with a punch, screwdriver, etc.

Sometimes there is a e clip on the back side and kingpin has to be removed.
