Title: Help with main bearings SPG crank Post by: BABOON on October 31, 2013, 08:59:50 am Could someone please help me. I have a SPG roller that needs machined main bearings. I still have the previous bearing near the flywheel, but what about the rest, what kind of machining is recuired.
Pictures please ;D Title: Re: Help with main bearings SPG crank Post by: MC Dyno Don on October 31, 2013, 17:48:48 pm I have a complete set of such machined bearings to show you, BUT...I am puter dysfunctional on loading and sending. If I can dig them out of my "Old School box", perhaps I can find someone to scan them for you. Best/Dyno

Title: Re: Help with main bearings SPG crank Post by: BABOON on November 01, 2013, 21:18:26 pm doesn't the Bill Fisher book show the modded bearings in the pic of SPG crank? I have his book, but the pictures arn't good enough. At least not good enough description for me to modify the bearings. I'm going to read it again right now. Title: Re: Help with main bearings SPG crank Post by: BABOON on November 04, 2013, 13:11:19 pm I have an NOS set that with a crank Could you please give me some information? What is the dept of the grooves and where should they be located. Do all bearings have grooves? Title: Re: Help with main bearings SPG crank Post by: Lee.C on November 04, 2013, 13:15:52 pm Still think you should drop Gary an email......
Maybe it will get him to hurry up with mine! ;) :) Title: Re: Help with main bearings SPG crank Post by: BABOON on December 30, 2013, 11:17:34 am I have an NOS set that with a crank Since you have a set, please give some info about the grooves. There is absolutely no help without pictures or any description at all. How should I modify my bearings based on your information?
