Anyone know where I can order parts for a rebuild of a rear xt hub? specifically, all the bearings, axle, and whatever huge stack of things on both ends are. thx.

Does it need those parts? Or are you just overhauling the hub? Generally for an overhaul, you just clean all of the grease off of the bearings and out of the hub and apply new grease.

Those parts would be available thru the LBS, most shops carry the bearings, the cones and axle may have to be ordered, depending on the size of the shop.

It kinda does. The axle is messed up from the droupouts somehow... it doesn't unscrew properly. The rest of the stuff could use some replacement too. I gues it just might be cheaper to get a new hub nad take what i need...

go to your LBS and ask if they can order from BTI. Most shops can.....

any good shop also should carry the proper loose bearing size.

if you get the runaround from the shop, im scrapping a shimano wheel because the disk flange has 2 stripped rotor bolts. The hub is an XT with an XTR freehub and axle (uhem... Ti). I could pull out the guts if you were interested.. PM me if you are.....
