I purchased a new complete axle bearing carrier, i have it in my hand. Looks pretty decent quality. What is gettting me is that it has sealed bearings but has a grease fitting in the center of the carrier....... after taking a closer look at the swing arm. Thera no possible way to grease the carrier once its in the swing arm.

And what is the purpose of the threadded hole in the bottom center of the tube on the swing arm that houses the carrier?

Can you post up a pic of it?

The threaded bolt is a stop and start to keep you from rotating the carrier to far past loose and tighting of the chain .
The grease fitting is kinda useless with sealed bearings but it will help keep water out if filled .

that bolt is missing so i will have to replace it. upon further insepction of the swing arm and carrier....... is the only thing that keeps the carrier from rotating the to bolt you tighten on either side of the swing arm? thats all that holds it are those clamps in the swing arm?

After the brake stay theirs a big clip that keeps the carrier from falling out .
The pinch clamps are for adjusting the chain tension and keeping it in from rotating.

Lox, give Tapper a shout via PM about case savers. He may have a extra laying about. I have one in my personnel display cabinet and they are very functional + nice.

Thanks Lox.
There is a feed back forum and most definitely Tapper has some. Use the search in upper right corner while in that forum and type in Tintapper or just tapper, you will be able to add to his feed back then.
