I'm looking at pics on ebay and such, and it doesn't seem like this thing is even threaded. How the heck does that work?

it threads on, and has a pinch bolt that clamps it to the axle to keep it from loosening up.

threads are hard to see, but looks like they are there. it is a fairly fine thread.

It is threaded, just looks different in that pic for some reason. I have one and it is awesome. I just tighten it by hand until the axle is solid then tighten the 2 pinch bolts and you're set :cool:

I understand the concept, I have similar nuts on the front of the sandrail. I just don't see any threads. Must be time for some new glasses. :cool:
