Happend to me as well on a rear wheel today. I could see some slight scuff marks on the red nubbies once I got the wheel off but the hub itself looked pristine. Should I be worried about this?

I find that after I clean and re-grease my CL's the splines do not bind.

I dunno what this means.
My GMG wheels bind

Reter BBS bind

Important to make sure lock is engaged

My OZ's didn't really bind but after around 4 track days 1 of my rears would bind the spline and I noticed that after I cleaned the CL nut it didn't bind or a few track days....not sure if this was coincidence or what was really happening.

I have had one or two bind here or there, but it does not happen consistently.

Thanks Mike,

I believe I have got to back to everyone now, and was just missing Islandsnow.

Thanks for all of the interest!
