Hello all!
While not directly spridget related, this is certainly a tool that you could
use. I was rebuilding my father's yamaha golf cart and the threads on the end
of the crank became really messed up (another story). I worked on filing and
it was hopeless. I kept thinking surely there is a tool for this.
I found a product called "Chase 'em Back" it is a die that is hinged, to allow
you to place the die on the shaft and then back over the damaged threads. How
ingenious! They have many kits for sale but I only needed a 16x1mm die,
called them and they are 16.00, I ordered it on wednesday and it arrived in
the mail today from California. How about that for quick! It works as
advertised as well, You can use a T-handle or a 1 1/4 socket to work the die.
I am a very happy customer indeed, do a google search and check them out. I'm
sure when I start my Bugeye project back up I'll find my self ordering a
complete set of die's for just such needs.
Merry Christmas,
