I think this post needs to be here--Installed my new Speedo delete and now the wheel refuses to turn. Yes,I removed the drive gizmo! Tried everything I can think of. If axle nut is loosened,wheel turns fine. 1981 SH. When I put the stock speedo drive unit back on and tighten everything according to torque specs it rolls freely. Front brake caliper is not installed yet,so that isn't the problem. I wonder if I am missing a spacer or something. All the parts are from rt. to left-threaded axle end-axle nut-flat washer-then the rt. fork leg-(no spacer)-then a large one piece cap over wheel bearing-then on to other side-Hugh's speedo delete-(no spacer)-then the fork leg-axle end with hole-cap underneath-recommended torque 61 ft.lbs. for main nut and 13 for axle cap nuts,if memory serves, and tighten front one first with arrow pointing forward. Can't find a decent pic anywhere. HELP!
