Rear axle nut tsb - diy
Whats up everyone
Im wondering if any of you have done this DIY ?
https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/929...e-nut-tsb-diy/
If so can you help me do this.
I dont have the tools
( the big ass ratchet or torque wrench)
Seems easy enough -minus not having the approriate tools.

my opinion unless the nut is loose i would not mess with it. It is inevitable that the driverside rear bearing will give up most do. My axle nut kept coming loose from a failing bearing, and i ended up breaking the whole end off the axle by torquing the nut too many times.

Its only about $30 in parts to do, heres my guide https://www.s2ki.com/s2000/topic/923...-axle-nut-tsb/
you can even rent the 36mm socket from your local auto parts store

I guess it's worth it though since it got rid of the constant clicking.
