Happily mowing w/ the '52 8N and she started to make a squeak from right rear axle - so stopped under the shade tree. Axle nut & washer AWOL. It did have an 8N4187 snap ring - because I'd had to retighten & set that some 3 yrs ago - so I do keep half an eye on that axle.
Anyway - question - Is it as simple as push hub back onto axle, add washer & tighten nut . . . or what else should I watch out for ?
I see from JMOR's reply in post 1024829 that I have to watch for the axle sticking out beyond the hub. BTW there is no oil leak - so seals are ok? these two pictures may help - if i can post them. Thanks! Angus
