Bolts, Nuts, and Washers

I just took my wheels off and put all of the bolts, nuts, and washers together in the same place. I got new tires put on the rims but ran into a few problems putting the bike back together:

1. The front wheel does not spin easily. Is something too tight? What bolts, nuts, washers, and spacers are supposed to go where? Pics please (next time it would be a good idea for me to take some).

2. I am left with an extra washer and feel like I am supposed to have another bolt for the underside of where the swingarm holds the axle. Once again, what bolts, nuts, washers, and spacers are supposed to go where?

3. I also tightened the brake bolt too tight and snapped it. What strength of a bolt should I get and what are the torque specs of all the bolts involving the wheels?

 

sounds like you need a workshop manual,and quickly.

 

+1 on what ken said, but in the mean time go here:

Just put in the info on your model, select front wheel from the drop down list and see if you find where the missing part should go.
Good luck!

 

loosen up the axle nut

 

We might be able to give a bit more specific advice if we knew what bike you're working on;

However, you either need a manual or to study the parts fiche carefullly.

You have to be especially careful of the speedometer gear box when refitting the front wheel on ANY XJ.
