Does anyone know what the angled "nozzle" sticking out of the axle is? Is it for adding lubrication to the ball bearings?

Hi Dreamscape, yes the 'nozzle' is a grease zerk for adding grease to the bearings while the wheel is still installed on the axle via a grease gun.

You have to get off and adjust the angle manually. There are some hydraulic add on kits available.

Question does not make sense, it is a front axle disconnect not for full time 4wd.

Primarily for PW Derby type cars (AWANA ,etc...) that use the nail or pin type axles. I would check the website for more information, as I am unfamiliar with the dowel type axles.

If you're talking about towing with the actual "ball" you will need to look at your trailer. it will usually either be 1-7/8" or 2" ball but make sure to get the 7/8" shank (threaded part). If you're talking about the Ball Mount. it should be supplied with one. When I bought mine, it did not come with it. So I bought one at home depot. If you need more info, just lemme know! I have this setup on my civic and im also an auto tech. -Dan

that is good, as long as it projects out so the operator can easily add air, unlike ones that run parallel to the rim,so they don't stick out !...drives me crazy. Thanks for the info !

No it is designed to work with two axles close together to allow a tire to be removed without using a jack.Drive the good tire up Trailer Aid and the tire to be removed will now be off the ground for easy changing.

Not exactly sure but with my trailer I purchased an extension bar from the same company. With the extension bar it added up to 6inches to the length. My axles were to far apart for any other product to work. Love them. Easy to use.

I use mine on my 32' Toyhauler and my 14' utility trailer for raising the bad tire off of the ground, or for wheel bearing lubing removal and lubing. Works on most trailer's with tandem axles.

The sprocket they are talking about is located about 1" from the tip of the blade where you will see the flush ends of the sprocket axel that is about " diameter. Next to the axel is a 1/16" diameter lubrication hole on either side of the blade that you have to get grease, or oil, into as best you can. Doesn't seem very effective but that is what they are talking about.

I do not know. I am using a straight shaft. Sorry. Try the Tanaka web site. I think they have one.

Jen I am not familiar with that style. This tool is specific to the axle size and track offsets used by BSA for Kub Kars. The axle size is by far the most critical issue. If the axles are not compatible you are either going to over-drill or under-drill both of which will not be desireable outcomes.

I don't know. The bottom of the bracket is open, to fit over an axle and then there is a one inch open grove you can insert a screw. I used two screws to attach it to a golf cart.

Nothing exotic, it comes with the bearings installed. You can find videos on youtube that show the whole process.Scott

The extra bearing is a stop bushing to be used at the end of the spit rod.. I have warned people and Amazon not to sell this attachment.. Order the one from your grill maker.. Frank

"Bearings" is an overstatement IMHO, though some call bushings bearings. The wheels include a pressed in bushing that rides on the axle. It's been a long time since I got these for my dad, so I don't know if it is a powdered metal oiled busing or a high-density polymer bushing.

I installed mine on a generator purchased from Northern Tools. You could purchase an axle from them and also the end caps. Use two "U" brackets to hold the axle to the bottom of the box. The axle is nothing more than a round steel rod.
