  1. Bashing
:angry::angry::Baltimore_Ravens:well i tighten all the wheels and they still wobble. i think it is the bearings are shot.just want another oppinion.


Thanks Brian
 
Define wobble. Wobble when driving, or wobble while standing still. Does the nut tighten the wheel, or does it leave slack??? Maybe you need a washer behind the wheel/nut. Have you checked your end-links, is the shaft that the wheel goes on straight???
 
one of the rear wheels in my revo does this. and the pivot ball caps are tightened down just to snug
 
shafts are stright.nuts have washer .By wobble i mean sitting on the work bench grab any wheel and it has play top to bottom ,side to side
 
have you put a washer be hind your wheel hex pehind the pin put a small washer that will help
 
I don't want to rig it.I want to fix it .my ? is does this sound like wheel bearings?
 
Take yer tire off and scope it out. Wiggle the axle and see if there's any slop. If there is, you can try new axles and bearings. Still might require a small washer to shim it. If it does, make sure there's no bind when the wheels tight. May have to use locktite and leave the nut backed off a bit to get it perfect. After a little bashing, it may need tightened a tad.
