It it just spins (whines) the one-way bearing may need cleaning/replacing. At least I think that's how those work.

I only got 2 months out of it since the truck was new. is there a better alternative to one way bearings? in my opinion, they suck! > it was a bad one way bearing. i dont think cleaning those really does anything, > not to mention taking the whole rear of the truck out to get to it. I only got Depends on why it's failed. If it's slipping due to castor residue gumming up the leaf springs inside the OWB, then cleaning will help/cure the problem. Soak in denatured or methanol[0] overnight[1], blow out, lightly lube with whatever your manufacturer recommends.[2] If it's slipping due to mechanical damage then cleaning will not help, and the shaft will probably be damaged as well. fm [0] NOT 70% isopropyl. It's not strong enough. [1] Seriously overnight. Not "a while", not "a long time", not "a few hours". [2] I use a drop of regular car motor oil.

The shaft was fine. I am not a very big fan of one way bearings Actually when you think of the numer of race reports where "so and so retired with a failed one way bearing". It seems to happen all the time .... > I will give that a try if this one goes out too. The shaft was fine. I am not a > very big fan of one way bearings |
