I am missing the washer that goes between the pulley and the grease seal.
I took the other side apart and found the washer and compared the good side to the diagram. The good side spins smooth and is tightened properly.
So, where can I find a washer?

I'll start calling the sponsors above.

thanks again, everyone!

Washer shouldn't be anything special take one to the local hardware store or TSC and match it up. I know TSC also sells shims for machinery if the washers wont play.

Thanks, I pulled the one from the other side and will take it to the store.

I got a washer and it didn't help.
If I'm looking at the diagram correctly, does the split spacer go around the cone spacer?

PM me your e-mail address and I'll send you the manual. Pic is better so you can see how it goes together.

I'm pretty sure I have all of the parts, so I must be doing something wrong.
between the bearing assemblies I have the split spacer.
I have laid out the other parts as I have installed them.
The small thick split washer seems to just float around in there right now.
The tightness of the grease bolt make the spindle hard to spin.
