Axle assembly

[Lieuht]

So i put in my new back bearings which was much easier than i thought threw it all back together and im happy with it. Only questions i have is the the axle nut wouldnt tighten down to much i can get it hand tight then when i put the wrench on it i would get maybe a full turn and it would loosen up again so i tightend it as much as i could and cranked the hell out of the allen bolts to lock it and it feels sturdy but im a little worried and secondly does it look like my right wheel is closer to the swingarm then the left one? i measured it and there the same it just looks off

figured out why it looks offset and its because i put the rims on backwards :haha:

Are you talking about the large nut on the brake rotor side?

Ya i figured out that the threads are pretty stripped on the axle so i can only get maybe 2 1/2 good turns on it but i tightend as much as i could and cranked down the little lock keys built into it so much so that i broke an allen key in one of them. So the next time i have to do the back bearings ill be buying a +4 axle
