I just noticed this after i came back from riding today. When i rock my bike side to side theres a little play in the axle, so just to make sure i lifted the back up to check and yea the axle's got a lil looser.. But my brake disc is loose and my lock nut is loose too..what do yall think it is? i hope it aint the axle bearings:mad:

if u have play in ur axle its ur bearings reaplace them so you dont ruin everything, i had experience. if its ur stock bearing i think they have to be pressed out? not sure. if u have the money throw in an aftermarket bearing carrier and bearings(good prices for them on ebay) and maybe even an extended axle!

i guess it might be about time for a double row then . :scary: is the disc and the beari ng supposed to have some play tho? either one can be wiggled back and forth a lil bit. it aint much but i dont think its supposed to be like that....
