Anyone ever run on of their locking axle nuts? I'm having a problem getting the nut to fit on my axle. It gets stuck before it even gets to my sleeve. I am going to take a dremel and bore out the hole a little bigger to get it to fit but I just wondered if anyone else has had this problem?

Where did it get stuck? On the fat part of the axle where the ring pushes against when you tighten the lock nut?

If so its pretty common if the axle has some time on it. Just file the lip on the axle down some, it mushrooms out from the clip pushing on it.

Happened on both my old gforce and my RPM.

Nah it gets stuck a good 2 inches before the c-clip.

It is a honda style lock nut. It threads in and everything but i'm not sure it works well with the laegers axle since it is thicker than stock.
