[QUOTE="Big Sid, post: 37336, member: 2781"] All else was as it should be except the outer faces of the big nuts were not out far enough to press against the left and right plates . There was movement , not clamped end to end . A couple shims beneath the nuts did the trick . This condition spoils handling too because of lateral movement at the rear wheel . Grasp the wheel at its rear and pull and push side to side , this will reveal the need for shimming . Sid . [/QUOTE]
