    How do you put it back together? Another video that’s not fit for purpose. If someone goes through the trouble of making this type of video, why not at least cover the whole process.

    I have an old Montgomery ward three wheeler, and the bearings are seized in the rear axle, and the axle itself is rusted from sitting outside for 10+ years, I have tried everything and I still can’t get the axle to slide out of the bearings, any ideas? Any help is appreciated

    how do you put them back??

  13. biggixer says:

    Great vid. 9 balls per side is good . I have seen on previous bikes I have owned as little as 6 per side. . Worth checking this out from new as when you need to repair the hub it is usually ruined. Cheers

    I agree with Toby48624 (apart from the swearing). This is a video tutorial given freely by someone with subject matter knowledge experience (paid professional perhaps?).
    Subject Matter Experts should provide constructive criticism where appropriate and, for the rest of us, if we cannot contribute meaningful dialogue we should consider moving on to children’s television.
    I anticipate responses. Having watched this video once and taken note, I for one will be moving onto the next tutorial.
