Flying the Mountains of the NW
Took a look at them to compare with my original axles. Only differences other than they are more stout were the Nitro axle half's are about 1/8 or less shorter compared to originals.
I decided to test install the right side with the short axle, all went well until the "c" clip install for the locking hub, barely got the "C" clip on and only a small amount of lateral play in the spindle outer end.
Put the newly rebuilt Aisin locking hubs on and placed it in the lock position turned the wheel and heard the inner gear snap in. Now the question -
I grabbed the front drive shaft and rotated it to see and hear if the inner axle and joint are rotating, but I hear no rotation and feel no movement inside the knuckle. Should I have movement as described above or do I need both axles installed
to get a some sort of indication the axle/hub are working.Before buying I did call Nitro home office and told them that I have a 82-45 with FJ62 knuckles/disc's installed and using stock Aisin locking hubs, reply was that this kit will work.
