Hi everyone,

whilst tinkering the other day I noticed some play between the wheel hubs and the hexagonal axle ends :)confused:) on my B6100. There are bolts with large spring type washers under the heads that I tried to tighten but they didn't move much and didn't make much difference to the wobble.... should I be concerned?

Thanks
Jimbo

they make better cast replacement wheel hubs, rather than the stamped one you have. You can either get them or shim the existing wheel hubs.
I shimmed mine with brass shims, they weren't very loose. But are extremely tight now, but the cast is the way to go.....
