please kick my bare butt turn by turn!! I cant believe Ive been so

bearing is kaput. Should have listened to a member who had advised me LONG ago
to check the front bearings...but I had thought they were good since they were
replaced 'recently'!!!
Lets see.fingers crossed.......maybe the tranny would not need to come

Aaaaargh Im so ashamed of myself! Today I ve vowed to listen good to you people
and move my lazy @$$ in time to check things as instructed.

to the axle. The splines are same since it slid right up. But the threads
hardly stuck out for the big castle nut to go on. Just two or three threads. So
the axles are shorter than post 68. > > Now weighing my options I realise I
