Happy Holidays!
You guys have probably already been over this, but I couldn't find it in search.

The left front wheel of my HL s&s Tiger 1 just decided to start coming off. Everything else is fine...

Please advise or I'm getting out the super glue! Thanks!

I've had this happen on both of my HL Tigers, I think it's "normal"!

You need to prise off the centre cover of the "sprocket" (front wheel), it's the bit that has a bump in the centre and 5 round it's edge. Once you prise that off, you'll be able to get a small philips head screwdriver in and tighten it up/re-attach it. I believe threadlock is recommended, but I'm holding off on doing that to mine yet as it's about to get a full strip down and re-model.

You may need to tighten up the suspension arms a bit as well.

hi go to your locol car shop and ask for some Loctite!. The man at the counter will know what your on aout but it has to be blue loctite. It hardens up the thred because the srew is vibrating loose.

Hot dang! I can DO this!

Thanks for the help, y'all! I was worried I'd have to start sending it back, but it runs like a champ. How does one go about "tightening the suspension"? Is it in the "search" feature?

Y'all ROCK!

Go get some free downloads for your trouble...

We decided to get a Tiger and a Snow Leopard to settle our "creative differences" with instead of arguing in the studio!

Hey, why not?

Thanks again! HL should be paying y'all!

Happy New Year!

Whoo-Hooo!

Ten minutes later and BOTH my Tigers have secure drive wheels!!!

Noticed on the S&S model, the hex-head screw has been replaced with a phillips head, so I got out my set of rods and VOILA!
(It may have been the opposite...)

I am hoping the replacement barrel from MATO will include some directions. If not, you'll be hearing from me!

Thanks again!!
