Frustrated in Healeyland. This is right up there with trying to get the old,
rusted, rear springs off. (but cleaner)
I am trying to get the required .001 to .004 clearance for the rear bearing.
I am using the gasket, and the spacer as suggested in the manual along with a
straight edge and feeler gauge.
The problem is that I keep going from .000 to .008 or something. The fact
that you just can't TAP these bearings back and forth, its more like a WAP
back and forth which doesn't allow for any gentle persuasion. And of course I
am using blocks of wood and cloths for protection.
Is it best to error on the high side (.004-.008ish) or the low side.
Hopefully this is one of those areas that has a little bit of a Fudge Factor.
What happened to the fun I was having last week?
