axel problem

[Michael Osterlund]

when I put in a bolt through my addict it got stuck just a little bit above the bearing almost the same and when I try to hammer it in it dosent do anything. the bolt also looks a little bent.

Well since I'm going to assume you already know how to line up your spacer with the bearing, you pretty well just diagnosed your own problem.
If the axle is bent, don't expect it to go through.

then how do i get it out? its stuck all the way through the bearing its just no matter how hard I hit it it wont go any furthur to the next spacer. any help?

not right now all I can say in the tip of the axel is stuck all the way though the bearing just a bit out of the bearing and the bearing is in the wheel and on the deck.

Stick an axel in the other end and hammer it through

What type of axle?

With the normal 2 piece razor style axles where the the bolt goes inside the other piece - they can get flared out if you hit it with something smaller than the diameter of the axle. PIA once they get flared so be careful taking a hammer to the axle.

If you have a bolt and nut type axle it is a little easier since the bolt is solid and won't flare
