...
do you have any comments?thanks.
I've been following this thread with interest and I wish mehranx good luck. I hope you get a good result!
The observations I have are:-
The new bush will need a good concentric seating in the head with the most contact area possible to support the bush and give the best chance for the loctite to work.
The clearance between bush and shaft looks about right IMO, but I'd worry about the roundness once it is cut.
The main worry I have is that oil will surely leak quite badly out of the slots left by the cutting in half.
I don't expect the loctite will hold out, but I have been wrong before!
To get a perfectly circular bush, in two perfect halves with no gap in the joint, of that very narrow wall thickness is a very difficult challenge, to say the least!
The very best of luck mehranx.
