Re: Rear hub nut tightness questions.

Jeff Collins (in club roster) sells the special rear axle tool and also the pinch bolt (via the grease fitting) tool which allows you to align the grove to drop the pinch bolt in. Both are necessary when working on the rear ends. I have a mega wrench for the rear nut however the impact will still out tighten the wrench. Also allowing to sit overnight seems to help get that extra little bit to align the cotter pin.
