Ok its my girlfriends 95 blazer... it needed new wheel bearings for inspection. So i put the drivers side in with no prob. but when i get to the pass. side i notice the cv boot is ripped. Being the nice guy i am i went and bought her a new axle... get everything put back together but when i try to spin the wheel it'll go one turn and stop.
Well i thought i might have messed something up so i tear it back apart and double check everything. It all looks fine so i put it back together again with the same problems. Now i start thinking its the axle since its the only difference on that side, so i buy a cv boot kit, put it on the old axle, and put it back in... same problem WTF.
So with the passenger side wheel of the ground i crawl under it and start rolling the wheel by hand and notice the whole center section shifting to the side when it starts binding up. Now im really confused and dont know what it could be... any help is greatly appreciated.
Oh ya when i had the axle out i could turn the hub by hand with no binding and i could turn the mid shaft without binding, but once everything is bolted together it starts binding again
