Locking rear hub
Posted: Sat Feb 16, 2013 2:52 pm
Hi All,
Just fitted a new engine (SIL) from scoot/res, when i fitted the rear hub (new uni one from MB with their cone and spacer so all matched) it completely locked, removed and fitted without the shoes and it spins with a little resistance, checked the shoes and they were not round (insdian ones which came on the engine) so threw them away and purchased new italian ferodo ones........ same problem
Has anyone had this issue, do you rub down the shoes slightly as they are clearly the problem??
Any help gratefully received
Thanks
