Next I found a pipe that would work as a spacer. You need a spacer that will touch the inner races of each of the bearings. As you can see, my pipe is too long...
So you have to cut it down to size, you big dummy.
Is it getting hot in here, or is it just my crotch?
Now that my spacer is the right size, I decided to do myself a favor by packing the outside space with some shop towels. This will make it so that the spacer stays relatively in the same place when you take out the axle...which in this case will just be a bolt (pictured above).
All that's left is to pop in the bearing for the other side and wallah it's sealed.
In other news...I got my Sachs G3 tank and seat pan back from the sprayer...BLUE!!! At least there's Vespino cosmetic progress...
that looks so sick man. that blue is so good. i've been making some cosmetic progress as well, there will be a post very soon about it. but man, that paint looks real real good. i think i'm going to take my tank to maaco and see if they can paint it for cheap
ReplyDeletevespino lookin so good!
ReplyDeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteSealed bearings have rubbing seals that seal against recesses in the inner ring shoulder. These are offered in this comprehensive source of manufacturers, distributors and service companies for the industrial marketplace. Thanks.
