i was sold a used M12 that was sworn to have no issues. I dont yet doubt the guy, but something is obviously worng. I was at first against buying a Moser new or used cause of issues i have read about,,but the price was right, the dude seemed very cool (sponsor) and it was close by...
while doing my carrier bearings (you helped me with a pic and wisdom) i noticed that the carrier axel hole, and the axel tube dont line up, its off centered and HAS to be casuing my grinding when i turn issue. I then also noticed a small line of nicks on that sides axel....i replaced the bearings, happy cause this was the first thing ive seen wrong, and ive been working on this since July,,,,but when i put the carrier back in,,,its sits the same way,,off centered from the axel tube. thats with the bearing caps on, and torqed to 55 ft-lbs....basicly, i now may have a M12paperweight that cost me alot of money. It will probably be 2010 by the time i get the money to fix and drive my car again.
