Default Re: Rear axel warran keyseat

If the drum/hub runs true on the axle, and the axle is not cracked (look close at the keway) make a custom fit key to match the worn keways.

Good idea,

Be sure to torque the axle nuts up good and tight, 125 Ft.Lbs. After you have driven your car for a hundred miles or so, re-torque the axle nuts. This will keep the hub from moving on the axle and wearing the new key and key ways any more.

Good luck,

Chris
