      What happens if you don't put the spacer back in when you change rear wheel bearings and seals I only ask because it's sized on the axle and after loads of time I cut the axle and used loads of heat and penetrating fluid to get it out and have a new axle does this affect performance and/or reliability

        @jimmydc98 yes buddy you deffinatly need the spacer i forgot to put it in when re fitting my wheels and it pulls on your wheel bearings and makes them toast in about 5 miles

            @jimmydc98 or if you can find a piece of pipe the same size as the spacer and cut it to lenth if not as long as it sits up against the inner part of the bearing
