Morning, is it necessary to add a shim between the front bearing and the cone? I have never done this, but I have read and been told it helps the race of the front bearing when the cone is not on it. If so, do we have a measurement or part # for this shim?
Thanks, |
Will you accept?
hey lance, wrote you you a message here about my B5 recently that I had wanted to send to you to get rebuilt. Wanted to know if you would mind if I sent it to you in pieces? I’ll explain..... I don’t disassemble my engine often, and want to get a repetition in doing that. So before I deploy, I wanna strip it totally down, inspect it, and learn a little more about the inner workings of a nitro engine. Would you have a problem with me doing that, and sending it to you completely disassembled to get worked on? Just curious. |

You can add a shim if you need to adjust the offset of your flywheel but it is not required. Also if you do add a shim it needs to fit the crank perfectly and not be larger than the inner race. I have seen many times people use large thin shims and they get bent back ( towards the bearing ) and eat up the bearing seal.
Thank you so much for the info. No shim it is then! |
