A little fettle

#1 Post by Aladinsaneuk » Mon Nov 23, 2015 4:52 pm

Having finally replaced a missing ball bearing and sourced some E clips to renovate the fighter rear pegs I acquired from Geoff I finally fitted them today

But - I was using the mounts to secure my remote preload for the shock....

So, it's Riv nut time.... Pictures to follow


Let's face it, you wouldn't go to a nurse to get good advice on a problem with a Falco - you'd choose an Engineer or a mechanic...

Lol

I couldn't use the same method to fit it - and didn't realise till they were offered up

Obviously too late for this time but for future reference, Aldi do boxes of E-clips from time to time. I've a box of them resting in the garage.
