Tecate Extended Axels

[HondaHarry]

oops. one more. (guess I posted a similar pic on page one. sorry) I totally forgot about this thread. should have made time to get them up much sooner. HH

Finishline axles came with 2 nuts according to my research. durables came with two and had on option for a single nut with a set screw. I have an old durablue for a Kawasaki mojave and it has one nut.

Hey harry you dont have a pic of it all apart do you?

[Tecate250]

Fianaly some one has the same axel. Do you know what kind of axel it is? I have 2 pieces. The large nut and what lookes like a threaded collar but cannot get it out.

[Tecate250]

Other then the cir clip this is what I have. Anyone tell me why there is adifferent spline on the axel?

[Tecate250]

Honda Harry. Did you get those pics?

[Tecate250]

Anything new here? may not be getting rid of the tecate now. Id still like to mount this bad boy on er.

I'll take a stab at this, even though I no longer have a Tecate in front of me.....hope I understand what you're asking.

The threaded collar inside the large nut must be able to thread back and forth inside the nut. Otherwise, you can't turn the nut.....thereby moving the collar out an putting pressure on the circlip in the groove of the axle. Once you get the threaded collar moving inside the nut, run the collar back inside the nut toward the brake hub, put the circlip on the axle, then tighten the large nut(inside collar moving out toward the clip. Tighten to your liking.

But my collar seems to have no way of keeping it tight like a key way or lock bolt.

I'm gonna throw this out there. Maybe that collar/nut you have isn't for the axle you have? They are pretty old parts, maybe they just ended up laying around with the axle by accident. One other thought I had was that maybe that axle would work with the Honda style set up? The splines look too coarse but its hard to tell from a picture.

[Tecate250]

Well it seems to fit just like honda harrys.

[JohnR.]

OK. It was just a thought.

[scottyms]

if your axle is the same as mine and the pics i sent you then im 99% its a dura-blue....

[Tecate250]

Finally got what I needed. Big thanks to scottyms for these pics.







So niow I know what I have just need to get the collar out of mine. Any ideas? So what about the odd spline on the axel?

[JohnR.]

Lots of heat.
