Drive Shaft Pinch Bolt & Pilot Bearning too Large

Post by cchan »

Hello,

I was hoping to have my drive shaft back but I ran into two issues. :cry:

1). I lost the pinch bolt to attached the front drive shaft to the three prong part that holds the front Guibo. Does anyone know the dimensions and size of this bolt so I can locate another one? I need this before I can complete the balance of my drive shaft.

2). The rear pilot bearing is too large for my new rear guibo. It fits in perfect with my old guibo which makes me belive that my new rear guibo is a defect. Anyone run into this or have any thoughts on this?

Thanks for any suggestions.

Sounds like your new rear donut is the wrong type. I think there are a few types. Is the pilot bearing only slightly too large (less than 1mm) or is it significantly larger?
Again, my guess is that you have a rear donut that is for a different model.
Good luck sorting this.

Thanks for the info. I will pass on this information on the bolt and get another rear guibo. I purchased it from Jon and I know he always treats me kindly.
