anyone encountered this problem rear caliper mount corroded onto rear wheel spindle ? its a pain to adjust the chain,anyone had this problem and if so how did you free it off ?
had to have my tyre changed with the rear caliper etc still mounted to the rear wheel,guy was not impressed
yeh my 89 was like this.. its a bitch. I eventually hacksawed the axle. I advise you to tray everything before doing that as an axle is £30 and the spacer is £15..
get the wheel off then put some penetrating oil down the axle into the mount and hope for the best.. might take a few days!
I tried everything.. brute force was the winner after I had to bash it out caliper mount side (need to take the disc off to do that aswell!)
