Having a problem with my axle end play..I have lots of play with the axle adjuster screwed all the way out..cant seem to get an adjustment on it..as I said I have the adjuster all the way out and still have lots of play..My axle thrust spacer is still in..I can push on one axle and it moves the other..are my bearings shot? They look pretty good.. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated..

I agree, OP screw the adjuster in to remove the end play, shoot for .005 to .010 max end play on the adjuster side, same amount on the other side. Last edited by Cab_Burge; 04/07/15 10:21 PM.
