Reply to "Axle problem?"

David (Guest)

Today I disconnected the half shaft from the axle flange. The axle flange nut is left handed thread. The assemlbly looks solid enough and has surface rust on the end. It doesn't look like it's ever been disassembled and that funky nut won't spin at all. But, the axle and the flange have a bit of play within the splines, just ever so slight. When the nut is torqued to specs is that a solid assembly with absolutely no movement? And finally where can I rent that special spanner wrench?
