When you need it you need it. After all these years. You have probably helped soooo many people. Appreciated. These threads go bad because people do not know how to tighten and then start to weld when things go bad. The past 15 years I see this often. You only need to tighten a bit and then bend the plate over the nut to secure. No need for muscle.
You are the man!!! I have an 02 YZF-R6 & this is exactly what I need to do! Couple months ago my nut came off & luckily it landed in my bottom fairing, otherwise I would have never known it came off. I got a new washer & nut, it eventually came off without my knowledge & my bike wouldn’t go into gear all of a sudden... i figured there was no fking way it could be that because I just replaced it! Thought the clutch went out & that was that. Haven’t touched it in 6 months. Come back to it and realized how stupid I was for not even checking. Well done sir!
thank you for making this video. i almost just pulled the trigger on the wrong die. thank you! this is also common on the 03,04. my current r6 just had this happen and Im repairing it!
@@SOCALMOTOBROS im waiting on a new nut because the one I bought already for some reason only threads on backwards. but i was able to repair the threads on the shaft. If someone welded yours on, its toasted.
@@SixWheelsDown Did you end up fixing it? I got a 04 and exact same problem the previous owner welded the nut on but I managed to get it off by just grinding the weld. How do you fit a die tool in there with almost no space?
He said he order a m18 x 1 from eBay in video I had to listen on a pc cause phone audio was bad. Great video thank you it really help me out and save me $$$$
Bro please please please show me how you used the Die, I didn't understand you when you said you used "pliers" could you do a video on how you had it set up In had this problem with my bike for a while now and I couldn't have found a solution until I saw this video but I just need to understand how you had it set up I hope you get back to me bro
TheDennisal519 the Die handle won't fit, but thankfully I manage to sort it, my friend use swan neck pliers and manually turned the Die. Thanks for this video
@@walijumaat2158 we manage to do it, put the die on and grip it with mole grips and a cloth and a bit or lubricant and go back and forth to make new treads

Where are u guys buying the nut and washer tho?????
@@austinaltherr2112 you need to get an oem part usually because its a special kind of nut and washer specific to the bike and its driveshaft
@@coweysmcnuggets But can you use OEM nut and washer? After threading you go down the size or?
We're rethreading the same exact size as before, more cleaning up the thread actually.
thank you for making this video. i almost just pulled the trigger on the wrong die. thank you! this is also common on the 03,04. my current r6 just had this happen and Im repairing it!
@@SOCALMOTOBROS yes its an M18-1.0 die.
@@SOCALMOTOBROS im waiting on a new nut because the one I bought already for some reason only threads on backwards. but i was able to repair the threads on the shaft. If someone welded yours on, its toasted.
@@SOCALMOTOBROS if the previous owner welded the nut on, then it neds to be replaced by taking the engine apart.
@@SixWheelsDown Did you end up fixing it? I got a 04 and exact same problem the previous owner welded the nut on but I managed to get it off by just grinding the weld. How do you fit a die tool in there with almost no space?
@@icantcomeupwithaname8925 yes i got it to work. but if you have a welded nut you have to replace the entire shaft. its a goner

@@NadzR6 do you still have thred left or not ? mine completely wornout and zero thred left on my shaft..... yow did you do yours?
@@walijumaat2158 we manage to do it, put the die on and grip it with mole grips and a cloth and a bit or lubricant and go back and forth to make new treads
