Rear Axle Torquing

[rcflyrj]

I raised the same question here just a couple weeks ago. http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/s...71#post1099971. See my solution that finally held it steady until the axle nut was tight in the second photo in post #14.

The right end of the axle wants to move rearward while you're tightening it thus throwing the belt to the outside edge of the rear pulley.

Thanks so much. Very elegant solution. I had done a search before starting this thread, but didn't find your entries.
I'll certainly try your solution next time around!

Thanks, John
