Hi,
I am rebuilding my cub engine at the moment - I have fitted the bearing and oil seal for the gearbox but when I slide the drive sprocket onto the high gear it binds up and is very tight to turn, but when it is not on it turns with ease (as you would expect from a new bearing)! I’m assuming the sprocket is going tight due to friction from the oil seal, even when lubed with oil it is tight!
I have the lip seal facing towards the bearing I wasn’t sure if this was correct or not but assumed it was the best orientation?
Any help would be appreciated!
Henry.
great thanks, so would i have to machine the bushes down to 35mm internal on standard 3ta bushes, or with the 35mm bushes turn the external diameter to fit a 32mm leg? thanks
Hi, i have got some Triumph 3TA fork bottoms, and have been told that i can fit bultaco/fantic/montesa stanchions, i was wondering how i could get some 35mm stanchions in the 3TA 32mm bottoms? any help would be appreciated,
