Well I've got my rear end assembled, I still have to assemble the brakes and the springs but this part is done. I ended up pounding the bearings on with a tube that was the perfect size. I had one problem!!! When I was done I noticed the tiny spring that puts pressure on the outer seal of the bearing (it has an inner seal too) fell off and I was unable to get it back on!!! I'm hoping the inner seal keeps the lube in the rear end and the outer seal keeps the lube in the bearing. Any way If it leaks I'll have to replace them down the line at $200 for the pair Anyway enjoy!!!

Troy? Haven't you posted photos here before ? Are you using a cell phone camera and posting from your cell phone? (if so I can't be much help). cell phone screens are TOO SMALL for my eyes to see much, so I transfer the images to my computer and post from it. I made a detailed post a couple of days ago for helping other new folks, you might look for that post?Comment

Bama, yes I have but every time it's a pain in the butt!!! I down load them from my phone to my computer then try to upload them to the site. Was your post just about uploading pics or was it in another subject post? I couldn't find it!!Comment

Hello Troy
See if this will work for you

How do I attach a file to a post?
To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main 'New Post' or 'New Thread' page and not 'Quick Reply'. To use the main 'New Post' page, click the 'Post Reply' button in the relevant thread.
On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled 'Manage Attachments'. Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments. You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page. Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.
To upload a file from your computer, click the 'Browse' button and locate the file. To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page. Once you have completed one of the boxes, click 'Upload'.
Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window. You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
What files types can I use? How large can attachments be?
In the attachment window you will find a list of the allowed file types and their maximum sizes. Files that are larger than these sizes will be rejected. There may also be an overall quota limit to the number of attachments you can post to the board.
How do I add an image to a post?
If you have uploaded an image as an attachment, you can click the arrow next to the 'Attachment Icon' and select it from the list. This will be inserted into your post and can be located where you want it displayed.
To include an image that is not uploaded as an attachment and is located on another website, you can do so by copying the full URL to the image, (not the page on which the image is located), and either pressing the 'Insert Image' icon or by typing [img] before the URL and [/img] after it, ensuring that you do not have any spaces before or after the URL of the image. You can insert photos from your albums (?) in this way too.sigpic
