1998BansheeHD Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 (edited) The Gear in the picture wiggles a good bit back and fourth... Is this natural or do i need to replace it. Here is a link to the video-> Edited July 11, 2009 by 1998BansheeHD Quote
Larry's Shee Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 I hope not, mine's loose as an 8 Mile Hooker! Plus there's a blob of weld holding it on, I didn't do it! Quote
locogato11283 Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 it needs a new bushing, washer and clip. FAST sells that stuff. you dont want that thing moving around too much. it can cause the clip to come off which in turn could fuck all kinds of shit up. get it fixed. just so you know, its the idler gear.. that way you dont have to say, "the gear thingy behind the clutch basket."

1998BansheeHD Posted July 11, 2009 Author Report Posted July 11, 2009 Oh ok thanks! what about the shaft that goes into the case? Quote
locogato11283 Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 Oh ok thanks! what about the shaft that goes into the case? should be fine. ive replaced many bushings in those gears. once replaced they are nice and snug. Quote
Drewski Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 I just changed my idler gear. it broke a tooth off because of the excessive play. it made a big mess of my basket and crank seal so I would fix it Quote

Make sure they put a steel bushing the gear for you. Cascade also sells the bushings and can get you setup correctly. :geek: Quote
1998BansheeHD Posted July 11, 2009 Author Report Posted July 11, 2009 What about the play on the clutch shaft? it had a little play in and out... Quote

1998BansheeHD Posted July 11, 2009 Author Report Posted July 11, 2009 (edited) less then a 1/8 inch Edited July 11, 2009 by 1998BansheeHD Quote
FireHead Posted July 11, 2009 Report Posted July 11, 2009 less then a 1/8 inch That's probably ok as long as everything is assembled properly. Quote
