possum Posted March 2, 2015 Report Posted March 2, 2015 well Ive had brand new cranks and brand new keyways that it just droppd in. no tapping required. Quote
Rigid_Banshee Posted March 2, 2015 Report Posted March 2, 2015 Key should just slide on no prob unless a P.O knowing jack shit fucked with it. Quote
Larry's Shee Posted March 2, 2015 Report Posted March 2, 2015 you can tap the flywheel on if you want but ive never seen the need for it. when the nut is torqed then you should be good to go. if not then maybe the key is in wrong or the crank snout is buggered up and not letting the flywheel pull up tight on the taper Which, is why you lap it, especially if it is a new/different crank or wheel. Takes a minute or two, then you know it's puuuurrrfect. Quote
ryguy27 Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Posted March 9, 2015 Can you explain the process to "lap" it to the crank? Quote
Larry's Shee Posted March 9, 2015 Report Posted March 9, 2015 You get lapping compound from auto parts, with key out, smear on shaft, install wheel, with light pressure spin wheel back/forth or round/round a bit. Wipe shaft, inside of wheel. if both have an even "look" you're done. If not, repeat until you do. Clean it pussy clean before final assembly. Lapping will get you a perfect fit between the two. If I knew why I can't copy/paste here, I would do a LMGTFY, haha. Google might get you a better idea. Quote
