What does it mean when i torque the nut and its hard as hell to spin, because its rubbing the hub as it rotates? ANy help would be nice. This will make my second hub that gets trashed. Well I figured it out, both of my darn spindles are bent. Is there any way to buy new spindles? I can't find them listed anywhere.

 

spindles are hard to find, more than likely you'll need to go to a junkyard

are you positive that the spindles are bent?
because you're over torquing the hubs and that might be the problem

you only need to tighten it until it dosnt wobble but not compress the bearings, that's why its hard to turn

 

Do you mean that overtightening the spindle nut can cause the bearings to shift and then it makes the nut rub? Autozone said my new hub has 5 months left on warranty so i will try to get another one. I am so stressed. I just hope I am stupid and overtightened.
