Help needed on Brake Installation
How do I get the marked area further out so i can put the spacers and the snap ring back on? I’m spinning it pushing it, twisting it but I can‘t get it further out... the other side was fine and it was in position when i removed everything,
Thanks for your help.

Are you saying the axle shaft isn’t out far enough for you to install the clip? Pull on it or push on the u-joint from the back side.

Yes, I’m trying to push but it’s not coming further out even though i can see on the backside that it should be out about an 1/8 of an inch more.

What was the “everything” you removed? If only the hub/ rotor the. Nothing should be holding the axle from coming further out.

What else needs to go on there? It appears to be out far enough to install the “c” clip.
