Last spring I installed new rear axle seals in my 400. This summer while doing hay and going down a blacktop, the thing rocks back and forth. I removed the whole wheel, tire and rim assembly on one side but on the other side the bolts holding the axle clamp were frozen. I cut them off with a torch and removed the tire/ rim and then the center wheel casting. When I put it back together, I tried my best to have the rim centered on the cast wheel when I tightened the clamp bolts and feel I got it really close. Using a large wrench as a feeler gauge it checks close but not perfect. The other side that I did not have apart checks farther off center. How close do these have to be? I guess I will make up a go/no go gauge to set them real close to being centered to see if that corrects it. It will have to wait untill haying is done so I guess it is a winter project. At least the axle seals don't leak:)
