uh... spacers?

[lloyd]

where can I get some? cuz I cant find any. Do they just come with a wheel and you keep em or can you buy some? help me plz.

 

[Steezeman]

The spacers that are inside the wheel between the bearings? Those come in the wheels already if the wheels have bearings. Just find a scooter and get the spacers from the wheels, because I think it'd be pointless to buy them being as it'd be more expensive for shipping than the actual spacers.

 

[nick12667]

what are they used for anyway? i know they go in the wheel but what is the purpose of them

 

[Pete Pachota]

The point of them is to make it possible to tighten the axle in such way that the sideways pressure would not be applied to the whole bearings and result in unnecessary friction.

pete is smart

 

[Lil Steve]

Pete is smart lol. I have 4 of them if you lived near me id give you some but i dont feel like shipping it out.

 

[Brian Boston]

pete is smart

Pete is smart, but knowing what spacers are for is common sense.

 

[steve]

they some times come when your by bearings

 

[farmboy uk]

like brian says its kind of obvious

dude i have like 50 i think most people have loads lying around, in old wheels etc

 

[zakmak]

you don't really need them in the wheel it's just
so you don't screw your bearings up
enless your talking about the ones used for pro mods.
then you half to get some oher ones

 

[Jordan Jasa]

whats wrong with the pro model ones?

 

[zakmak]

nothing im just saying the ones that you use outside of the wheel
like old A's don't need them.
know what i mean those spacers are not the same size as the
ones you use inside a wheel.

 

[Kenny O.]

were not talking about those though.

Were talking about the spacer than goes in the middle of the 2 bearings, if you don't put one there, when you tighten your axle the bearings are going to bend in/rub on the wheel and not spin as well.

 

[Eric Magray]

they come with many kinds of bearings. if you need them then just buy some new bearings.

 

[zakmak]

ya thats what i was saying the ones inside the wheels.

then i said enless your talking about the ones on the outside used on pro mods and new A's.

 

[lloyd]

I'm buying yak bearings on mitchells collectibles so do they come with them? And If I only have old rusted ones Is it ok...

 

[zakmak]

nope

just buy some skate bearings like reds.
those almost always come with those spacers.
