With you all the way and understand that Larry.
I just need an answer. Do I just buy a set of Wilkinsons and be done with it?
Are they the right size?
I have to worry about this when a guy here in Perth ordered WIlkinson axles and they are 39.995mm measured properly.
This is undersize to the bearing so as long as it's seated parallel, it's barely a press fit as it's undersize.
Checking my imperial back to metric, your 0.0005" comes back to 0.0127mm
To get this crush inside the bearing I need to confirm that Wilkinsons new batch is 40.0127 or pretty damn close.
As soon as I see 39's, they just can't be right.
By the time I get them here, and slip new bearings in, it's a $1000 job, so I must get it right. You guys are too far away to do it again, and the mail is a killer on heavy things.
