Anyone got any good pics of the method or a design for a bracket to mount a dial guage for measuing the sprocket heights with a dial gauge?

Also if anyone has pics or ideas for a jig to measure crank run out?

You could get a piece of ground 13mm square bar from an engineering shop then drill a hole to the gauges outer sleeve size with a tapped thread at 90 degrees to the hole to fit a screw to trap the gauge in the bar.Extensions are available to lengthen the gauges plunger to reach the sprockets. As for the crank truer I have one of these http://www.scooter-center.com/scoweb/pa ... egory2=CAT ,although a set of Vee blocks mounted on platforms will do.

I am playing all the right notes, but not necessarily in the right order.
