Tubular!


Hydraulic Press


Hello folks, I just started to put together my axle for the sprocket and disk brakes.  So this is how it went, I ordered the steel and all of it was about 0.010" too tight.  I had to turn them down on the lathe and got everything close enough where I can press them in.  This is after I put on the Loctite, of coarse.  I added an inside tube from my original design because a tool maker at my work, told me that I had to have something supporting the inside race, which can eventually cause it to get misaligned and destory the bearings.
