[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 147030, member: 597"] If the bushes in the chainwheel are new and there is still too much wobble, then the only fix is to replace the C3 shoe carrier........The OD of the sleeve does wear some and probably not easy to fix, so a replacement may be the only real cure here. They also can suffer wear on the inner spline to the gearbox input shaft and this can lead to the C20 nut coming loose on occasion and causing an oil leak in the clutch assembly. Too tight a primary chain will cause the assembly to wobble too much as well, so check that the chain has a good 1/2" of up/down play when cold........The chain tension increases as the engine warms up as the 2 shafts move further apart.........Good luck with it all.
