Hello Kyle,

Ray has some good points. Maybe another suggestion is to make sure you have a good grease seal with the clip put in on both wheels. Also make sure your key in each axle is good. You may want to think about buying a new set, Bert's in Denver have one for only $4.50 along with the new seals for $4.00 each. Also be sure you tighten the axel nuts well, I think Andrews suggest 125 lbs. Just my $.02 worth.
