bansheejoel Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 im picking up my shift shaft elliptical bolt and i was wondering how you guys adjust it to get it to get the perfect spacing in between the two "paws" that go on the shift star. I was thinking maybe a feeler guage but those are to small....any ideas would be great...thanks Quote
BellicoseBanshee Posted April 10, 2008 Report Posted April 10, 2008 Just use your best judgement to determine when the two 'gaps' are equal. A very small discrepancy is not going to cause shifting problems. Quote
bansheejoel Posted April 10, 2008 Author Report Posted April 10, 2008 i kinda would rather get something to measure the two gaps since it is all apart anywase but i know what you mean Quote
Hilarious Posted April 11, 2008 Report Posted April 11, 2008 you have to eyeball it. Its not hard to do. just get it inbetween the best you can and hold the screw with your screwdriver and tighten the nut down and bend the lock tab back. Dont sweat it. :beer: Edit: All this talk lately has made me realize that I put my clutch cover on my beater without tightening the nut on the eccentric screw and bend the locktab back over it. LOL :yelrotflmao: Quote
bansheejoel Posted April 11, 2008 Author Report Posted April 11, 2008 (edited) i didnt do it lol....the jackass before me did it. When i do stuff it has to be perfect i hate half ass stuff thats why 75% of my shee is new stuff......beater? Edited April 11, 2008 by bansheejoel Quote
Hilarious Posted April 11, 2008 Report Posted April 11, 2008 beater=play banshee. :teehee: Just eyeball it. dont sweat it, you wont be half assing it. An example of half assing would be doing a total rebuild with nice ported cylinders and going back with an unwelded stock crankshaft. Quote

Dick Wheels Posted April 11, 2008 Report Posted April 11, 2008 Speaking of, does anyone have any pics of how the shift shaft and stuff is put together? I just pulled mine all apart because there was a ton of play in my shifter to find the adjustment screw was broken off in the case and the lock washer was floating around in the clutch cover and went threw some gears. i also found the kicker idler gear had no clip holdingit on and the washer was also floating around the clutch cover! what a mess Quote
