look around inside. I had to use a 20 ton press to get those
bearings off the inner axle shaft; very tight. I'd check the
tolerances on the shaft and bearing. You may have some wear in the
parts. Pressing them back together took some force too.</p>
<p>Loc tite has a product for holding bearings onto shafts, green I
think. It may help.<br>
</p>
<p>Hope this helps and good luck.</p>

<div>The inner axle shaft (right side) has moved out of the axle
house by as much as 12mm, so far that a lot of oil has leaked
after a race. </div>
<div>The ball bearing has slided inwards on the axle shaft by
the same amount (retained by the oil seal housing). Has anyone
experienced this? Before? I noticed these bearings had moved a
little, but never more than 3mm. In fact, nothing does prevent
the bearing of sliding on the axle shaft, except the
interference.</div>
<div>Does someone know a fix? Loctiting the bearing on the axle
shaft? Machining a groove for a circlip?</div>
