Still assessing before rebuild -
Next issue- the plungers
. Took ages to separate them due to corrosion, all springs badly rusted and probably not safe to use; all shrouds badly corroded and holed, shafts similar. I got a local machine shop to make new shafts then saw how much it costs to replace all 8 shrouds
never mind the springs. Has anyone found servicable used parts, strikes me that they are all going to be much the same?
Had a go at the front wheel bearings the other day (you can tell I'm potterring at this, grab an hour when i can, probably need a proper plan to be effective but i enjoy it) I struggled to find a drift with the length and angle to strike the midgies whisker of bearing accessible. Despite some good solid hits and heat from a blow torch i can't move either bearing. Any ideas?
