Tuan Posted April 20, 2021 Report Share Posted April 20, 2021 (edited) HEY GUYS AND GALS, WELL, MY REAR WHEEL BEARINGS WERE WOBBLING AND I THOUGHT HEY, LET'S REPLACE THE WHEEL BEARINGS IN THE REAR OF THE 1971 510! SO I CAREFULLY DREMEL AND GRIND AND CHIPPED AWAY AT THE REAR STUB AXLE NUT AND DID MY BEST, STILL MANAGED TO DAMAGED THE STUB AXLE. AND PROBABLY WILL DAMAGE THE OTHER SIDE TRYING TO TAKE IF OFF..............SO WHAT DO I DO? 1. DO THEY MAKE NEW 510 STUB WHEEL HUB AXLES? 2. WHAT'S THE DIE SIZE IF THIS CAN BE TAP/DIE ? ANYONE HAVE A PAIR FOR SALE THAT IS NOT DAMAGED LIKE MINE? 😃 Edited April 20, 2021 by Tuan Quote Link to comment

RJRACIN240 Posted April 20, 2021 Report Share Posted April 20, 2021 looks like you are royally screwed on that, the only thing that I can think of is that the end of the threaded portion that is not usually taken up by the threaded portion of the nut is still intact to hold it all together. My thought is that you might be able to find a castellated nut in that size and then use a cotter key for positive retention. Just my .02cents worth to bodge it back together Quote Link to comment
Trophy24 Posted May 21, 2021 Report Share Posted May 21, 2021 Thread file would fix that. That’s what I do at work. There is a punch we use that pushes the staked portion of the nut up so the threads don’t get messed up. https://www.amazon.com/Schley-Products-Toyota-Unlocking-SLY-65420/dp/B004IQDIAG Aaaaannnnd Bob’s your uncle 1 Quote Link to comment
