Changing rear tire.

[Chip]

I'm changing my rear tire for the 6th time. This time I took off the gear side bolts to inspect the wear in the inboard side. Once I cleaned up the parts I found a bushing. I'm not sure were it goes. I thought it went between the gear and the drive unit. I'm not so sure now. The wheel seems to be setting too far away from the drive unit with the spacer bushing in. HELP! If you have a knowledge of my mistake, give me a call if you can. 269 377 7955. Thanks

You have the stepped spacer on the wrong side of the hub/bearing. The spacer is #21 in this pic. It should go on the other side of the bearing it's currently sitting on in your picture.

goes on the inside. "Mushroom" against the inner bearing, sleeve through the outer bearing.

Thanks Kevin.. I put the bushing, I think the number on the print is 21, on the wrong side of the cover. Stupid. The print I was looking at was a PDF file copy of the manual. Section 16.10 Thanks ....again!

Thanks guys
Got it done. Just hate refitting the 200-60-16 back into place. Tight fit even deflated.
