[QUOTE="Matty, post: 110959, member: 1339"] I used the spacer with oil seal from dragonfly but a member of the local VMCC club who line bored my leyshaft bush housing which was damaged and made an oversized oilite bush to fit, also turned a very narrow groove for an O ring in the outside of the Draganfly spacer/oilseal to prevent oil seeping past the outside of the bearing and past the spacer. I also put some Loctite round the outside of the output bearing which as you probably know is a very odd size 72mm x 1.5 inches internal x 17mm deep - I used a sealed bearing and left the seals in. I bought it in 2011 from Peter Barker 01454 228066 [EMAIL]barkers@engrs.wanadoo.co.uk[/EMAIL] for £47 then but of course they may not still be in business now. There should be a gear indicator on the inner shaft of the gearchange but this can not be causing any trouble if there is not one !! All the best Matty [/QUOTE]
