#107564 batman1700 (User) Fresh Boarder Posts: 2 Re Installing Rear Wheel NEED HELP 3 Months, 3 Weeks ago   Hey all, I removed the rear wheel and had a new tire mounted. As I'm putting it back on I notice a spacer "tube" inside the rim. I can take it out if need be. But it just floats in there. I can't get the axle back in because the spacer moves around, doesn't center up. I have an '06 Silverado.

Very helpful. Didn't mention the spacer. I got the axle back in. After alot of wiggling and a few threatening and impolite words.

If you put it thru the wheel and pick the wheel up using the dowel it should helep get it in the right place.   Logged     Black Ice is Shinny, Black Ice is Deadly, Ya Wanna Ride My BlackIce?   The administrator has disabled public write access.
