Title: 86/87 actuator arm
Post by: kwakman on February 05, 2010, 04:12:25 AM

on my 86, the actuator arm runs in a bushing, and on the 87, which are SUPPOSEDLY identical cases, the arm runs in needle bearings.can i remove the sleeve and run needle bearings on the 86????  thanks, kwakman

anybody got some 87 cases which they can measure the bore of the actuator arm housing so i can compare them to my 86? dont even have to be 87 cases, anything after 86 should give me a measurement of the arm housing bore so i can work out whether i can run the bearings and i'll do the rest. pretty please with sugar on the top........ :wink:
