Hi, I am trying to install my rear axle with the one bearing on it and my attempts have not worked. So I am wondering what you guys think I should do?

Thanks

Can you give some more details on what you are specifically having trouble with.

I am having problems with putting the axle with the right side bearing on in the swingarm.

Do you mean you can't get the bearing to slide in? Your best bet would be to grease it up and find a tube of some sort to slide over the axle that you can use to tap on the edges of the bearing.

Yeah I did not have a piece of pipe the right size so I ended up putting on a hub and washer from a 200 and gave the nut a few good taps with a sledgehammer and now its in.
