Hello all. I discovered whilst removing my rear wheel of my 08 FLHT that I have side to side play in the swing arm, not much but enough to be able to feel it in my hands. My genuine HD workshop manual says to torque the pivot shaft nuts to 40-45 ft lbs. Nothing is mentioned about any side play, my guess is that it should be side play free whilst moving up and down freely without any binding. Or am I wrong. Any help appreciated. Neale.
