Tyler, when trying to install the rear wheel and line it up in the swing arm and also get the brake caliper to line up things can get to be a pain if you do your stuff by yourself.
YES I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT!
I just took the rear wheel off the XR and this thing has a 160 tire on it. It just barely fits between the forks in the swingarm as it is. Trying to get that sonofabitch on/off was a chore and a half. Wedging it in all cockeyed and shit trying to dodge the chain slider and caliper mount, beating things to make shit line up.
Yeah, spacers just sit inside the seals just enough not to fall out when the wheel is just sitting on the ground, but as soon as you try to lift it and wedge it in shit falls out everywhere! haha,
