Hi,



Just got done putting my block together (12a TD), and when the rear gear was bolted right up there was absolutely no movment in the e-shaft. Has anyone got any ideas about why there would be no play in the shaft? I understand that about 0.04mm is what you should have. Could it be because the plates have been decked too many times in the past?



We loosened the front gear and moved the shaft around and it feels like the wider portion of the shaft is pushing on the plate that bolts on after the thrust bearing, spacer etc..



Sorry if my description is a bit vague, but hopefully someone knows what I'm on about.



Cheers.

 

Perhaps the rotors are not phased quite right. Maybe one rotor is off by one tooth.
