Here are a few pics of it. I tried hitting it with a hammer but its not moving. Is there a snap ring next to the carrier?

well you got it moved a bit, so hit it back, lube it up and try it again, make sure it isnt catching on the lip were the snap ring for the axle tighter push's up against, and if its all clear and still wont move, like said above heat it and beat it

p.s, looks like you need a new rim :D

Thanks for the tips. I finally got it off by beating the hell out of it. Now I am having trouble with the axle tightener. It isn't moving over enough for the snap ring to go in. I guess its time to invest in durablue lock nut. Do they work good?


And yeah I got new Rims :D

Yeah I bought one about a year ago then my friend gave me his from his 250r so i just used his then this happened so i'm happy i had this one. My problem with the tightener is that I tightened almost all the way and I cant see the lip for the snap ring so idk if something is in the way or what?
