 Let me show you what this bad boy can do. Welcome back to another episode of Titanium Man Garage. If you've seen my last video, you saw what I had going on with this 2002 Scrammler. Wheel axle bearings are shot, wiggle them, this whole thing moves. Picked up a used axle, because it was a lot easier just to slide the axle in oak than to buy the bearing kit and from what I'm told, if you buy the bearing kit and you install it incorrectly, you blow the bearings out. To avoid that, I've never actually installed bearings. I've done an axle swap a couple times. I prefer doing it that way, but just to let you know what I got going on here. First thing I did was I removed the chain guard that goes down here. If you see my last video, I rebuilt the transmission. I installed it, but I left the sprocket off down here. The chain's just laying in right here. I did that for a reason, because when I remove this axle, I won't have to worry about taking that sprocket off. I can just slip the chain on, put the small sprocket on, and just slip it on, put the little C-clip on, and boom, I'm done. For starters, I'm going to tear that thing apart, because that swing arm isn't right. I just need the axle. Then I'm going to take the tires off, break caliper off, and there is a C-clip right down here, a really big one. Wrench socket, 9-sixteenths wrench and socket, and a 5-eighths wrench and socket. That should probably get you through pretty much everything you need to tear this apart and a stronger battery. Next thing is there's a huge C-clip right here, just showed you earlier. I'm going to take that off, and then the sleeve pops off. So that C-clip is right here. This will expand, pop off. I'm going to take a flat screwdriver and hammer, and I pop the sleeve off, then I can take this disc off. So I'll use something like this, that C-clip off. I got it spread out with this thing. It didn't spread quite far enough. Taking the screwdriver, just kind of popping the rest of the way out. That's focusing on the camera, but that is your C-clip sleeve off. The sleeve comes off for it like that. Now you can take the disc off. So you take those off, pop this off, and there are two bolts that hold the bracket on for the brakes. And this one here, and another one back here. I'm going to take those off, and I don't have to take this off. Sometimes you do, sometimes you don't, depending on how you want to take it apart. I'll undo those two bolts. I'll spread this apart, and this thing will just slide right out. All right, so then I took the bracket for the disc brakes off. That sits right like so. It's actually split in two halves like this. I took the half inch bolts out of the bottom and just came apart. Now there really isn't much left. I'll take those two off, spread this out, and slide it out. All right, let's get to the fun part. Pry this up a little bit. Here's the oblong. I'm going to spin it so it's at its smallest point. I have to adjust this once I put the chain on. Like I said, this carrier is oblong, so when you spin it, it actually makes the chain tighter or looser. If you remember, this came off the 400, so I wonder if the gear ratio is different. So I think I'm going to use 500 gears. Yeah, teeth are a little closer together. See that in the camera, compared to this one. So I'm going to take that off, and then I'm going to install that on there. I'm going to do that back to the heavy gun again. It's exactly pretty stubborn. All right, so I'm just tightening them bolts down. The sprocket cover over it. All right, so now I'm going to put the chain cover on. The wrench goes on the back side where the bolt is. One of them you'll have to spin it. I torque them down too. I still have the sprocket off up here, so I'm going to have to loosen that back up when I'm done. Turn this one way at another to get a little slop. I usually go about two fingers of play, and then tighten that down. So the next thing is we put this bad boy back together. All right, so I put my disc on. I know this gun's about 22 foot-pounds when I torque it down, so I'm not going to check the torques back on that. And then the sleeve goes back over. I'm going to use the new sleeve because that was pretty. It's got a little foam washer thingy. I'll slide it in, slide it right on there. Got my sort of tools here, but put this bad boy back on. All right guys, got her all done. Two things to keep in mind that I actually forgot about. So one, before you put the sprocket on and the chain cover, slip the chain on the sprocket while it's up a little higher, and then slide it on the bolts. It makes it a lot easier to get this on. There's one about two fingers of play. You can see on the side about two fingers of play because you got to remember when somebody sits on this thing, she's going to squat and that's going to tighten up the chain. Next thing is make sure you leave this loose. So when you turn this to adjust your chain tensioner, if that's tight, you're not going to be able to spin that. So leave that loose and you'll be able to spin that to loosen and tighten your chain and tighten your bolts. And boom, you are done. So that's how you replace the rear axle in a scrambler, actually pretty much any of your scrambler. Hope you enjoyed this video and like always, till next time.
