Rear wheel

[seawolf]

I've taken off rear rim and tire. When pushing on the pulley it moves about 1/2 " side to side. When read manual there are dampeners inside. Is this normally the movement?

I have a 2011 vaquero. If its like mine it will pull free of the wheel assembly. The way it lays in your picture, just keep wiggling it and lift at the same time. I pulled mine while it was still under the rear of my skoot. It gave me more room to tilt the wheel assembly sideways and pull it out from under the swing frame. That way I didn't have to lift the rear frame up much at all. You need to remove the axle shaft spacers on both sides first then slide the wheel to the left so you have room to pull the wheel pulley free of the wheel.

Thanks, I took it all apart, and it looks ok.
