Yes, I’ve done my bit for China’s economy and my little die cast T is in.



It did need a healthy shove and a wriggle to get up the pipe

Think that’s a nicer fit than the viper one and a lot cheaper too. Also suggests that the 19mm one would simply be too much.

Received the new brake master cylinder and swapped out the pushrod. I'll install it this week.

I assume you have a locknut in the inside of the fork ?

Of course.

I had a grease seal leak behind the right rear hub. Pulled the hub, replaced the seal, put the hub back on. Then put the castle nut on and tightened it down so it lines up with the hole for the cotter pin.

I tightened it 3 times, I just need to tighten it a little more. Then it's too far, so loosen it and start again.

I must have done that 15 times until it finally lined up

Now I'm upstairs having a drink

Or you could have just filed the back of the nut to get it to line up.....

Arwyn

Make the nut slightly thinner so the hole lines up. Hmmmm.

I'll keep that in mind for next time. How tight should that nut be? With the amount of force needed on the 3-arm puller the nut isn't doing too much anyway.

I always thought that you just nip the nut up and then back off to meet the hole.

Not my Mog but I did find the source of an annoying noise for a mate. The wing stay to the tp of the wing had lost the nut & bolt.
