the other day i was moving some dirt around with my loader ad i start to hear the chains caching something on my tractor i get off and look and notice the hub moved in about an inch and the tires hitting the metal around the gas tank. my question it why does it do that and how can i stop it?

thanks dan

Dan, the set screw prolly loosened up and it moved. If youdrive it how it is you will end up ruining the axle seal. Bring it up to my house if you dont want to deal with it and I will help you out. And how come you still have the chains on?

thats one of the things I check on all my tractors before they come out for the spring other than oil and air

keep them tight and they will be all right :omg:

Mine just had one setscrew and I had trouble keeping the hub from moving.

Get a new setscrew that one has the sharp area that grips the shaft wore off.

Get four and drill and tap the hubs at 90 degrees from the existing setscrew then

they will stay tight.
