Well spent the last 2 hours trying to adjust the brake no luck. I got the bottom two set to .010, top left .020, and the top left gap is way out only like .003 . I am doing something wrong any idea's?
Going to have to call the brother in law.
Hub went on easy though
If I had the money I would have every opition. I full dressed deuce with a gun ring and gun look impressive.
Side note what are you painting your bed with?
I use pipe gasket from work. Size is almost perfect. Here is some photo's
This material is viton and is resistant to chemicals, heat, and oils. You can pour 78% sulfuric acid on this rubber no problem.
I can't speak specifically for the A3, but it's going to be similiar to the A2. The hub is held in place with to lock nuts and a tabbed washer. There is a inner and outer bearing that the hubs spins on.
I can't feel so I use a torque wrench. 50 ft lbs then back a 1/8 off and torque the lock...
Round two, brakes are out of wack. They were so tight i could not get the hub off. I was hoping not to have to adjust them. Guess I am going deeper down the rabbit hole.
Found some epdm cord. Decided to go with that. Every is back together now.
Need a couple of new ndt tires though. If I can't find them guess I will flip the hubs so I can make due.
Got the gasket material from Napa (thanks Bob). Going to do that fix, touch paint, and then wiper hose. After...
Got everything prepared for reinstall. Packed the bearings, pressure washed everything, and cleaned the flanges.
If any has question or needs photos let me know. Seem like the axle seal repair is coming up often.
