 Re: Odin Finished all 4 swing arm bearings, cleaned and greased up. Fitted both spring pots and connected all tie rods, end eyes and knife edges. Clips secured with wire so I won't loose them on the raid if going through high grass or bushes. Attachment:

Re: Odin Finished the rack today. When time comes, I'll do a proper steering rack over haul. This will do for now Removing the guide ring manily due to too much play between the ring and the guide. New ring is fitted tested inside the guide making sure it does not bite on the guide moving it from side to side Attachment:

Re: Odin Oh I see. No no everything is very dirty, just cleaning a bit before putting everything back together. Sometimes I clean before stripping as I can't see a bloody thing.
