Axle Hole Problem

[proudlefty]

OK, so, I've had my pro deck for a while now and I made the mistake of leaving the axle loose too long so the axle bolt has scraped around the hole in my deck and made it much much larger. So my wheel has a whole bunch of give and makes the noise of it hitting the side whenever I jump. I'm afraid it may brake soon. Has anybody else ever had this problem? Have you ever found a way to fix it? I'll post pics of it soon. Please help.

Yeah, I've put in washers but I don't think they're working. I got a pic.

Round the hole out and put a bronze bushing in there, i would just get a new deck.

Yeah, but I've had this deck for oh, 8 months? I like it and don't really want to spend the money on another deck. Maybe I could just by another pro deck. Brian, what's a bronze brushing?

uh yeah. OK so do know that that will work? Where can I get one, maybe two.

Probably home depot. You'd have to get the hole rounded perfectly, and find some that have the right thickness to hold the bolt in place.
