    freewheel axle flanges

    Here are a couple of pics of my modified front axle flanges. I turned out the spline area to an O.D. of 1.95". I shrunk in bronze bushing material and turned it out to an I.D. of 1.64". The major O.D. of the axle spline is 1.625". That gives me about 0.015 clearance for free running in...

    Removing, rebuilding, reinstalling Hydraulic Head

    Thanks Kenny. I will have to try to find a shop in town with a press so I can take the spring and keepers off the plunger shaft. It seems the plunger is stuck in the barrel, but hard to tell with the spring pressure. We don't have any injector shops in Juneau, so I will have to send it to...
