Axle nut not threading onto remanufactured CV axle
Got my CV axle swapped out, seals replaced, and everything else torqued back down to spec and now the axle nut won’t thread onto the axle. I have the nut from the previous axle that I was trying, but I read in a few places that they should be replaced every time they are removed. So I went down to the Toyota dealership and bought a brand new one with the same results. I’ve even tried lightly filing the threads to open them up a bit, but the nut just gets super tight almost immediately. Wanted to get some input before I pull out the hacksaw and start with some fresh threads. Thanks guys.
