Alright i changed the spedo bearing in my sled today, it all went well, got it back together and everything looks great, i tryed it out


the secondary clutch was opening wide open, and would stay wide open.


i think this is because i put the spring in the wrong hole, of 5 drilled holes?

is this the problem or did i do something else wrong?

Did you wind the spring to give it pretension when you put it together?

 

[csdwarf11]

oh, your supposed to wind it in a hole circle? i didnt no,

i thought it would make sense but when i went to turn it it seemed like alot of force to do a full circle.

You don't need to wind it a full circle. It just needs to go clockwise to the next setting where the bolts line up. You should have noticed which hole the spring was in when taken apart, if not try the middle one. If your peak rpm's are too high or low, it will change 200 rpm per hole.

yeah, i didnt wind it enough it a circle then, i just have to re allign it,


thanks guys,

That's pretty common to do the first time you take one apart. Another common thing is winding the wrong direction, that doesn't work so good either

Quick question not to jack the thread or anything, but seeing as you just replaced the speedo bearing which i have to do, which bearing is it to be exact? I have it i just need to change it, is it the one that goes on the shaft you remove when your changing a track?

Yep and the bearing is flush with the shaft and the lock collar goes to the inside!
