[QUOTE="John Cone, post: 16452, member: 280"] Thanks guys. That explains why my new shaft will not go into the inner or outer bushes. My old shaft measures 0.6875 or 11/16ths and was a slack fit but not excessive. I've had to turn down the inner part of the shaft by 2 thou ish and so not to damage the serations/splines reamed out the outer bush. Peter i will also have to turn a spacer for the outside of the cover to stop side twist on the lever. To me the measurement I have on the old shaft of 11/16 would have made it more easier to line ream using a standard size reamer on the two bushes if needed. PS/ The shaft was change because the seration end of the shaft had twisted/rung. [/QUOTE]
