Pietenpol-List: Motorcycle Wheel Drawings

Post by matronics »

Original Posted By: Thomas E Bowdler
On the grega's telescoping landing gear assembly.....Assemby consists of two parts. An upper section slides into the lowersection and telescopes. Held together by two bungges.The upper leg shows a .25 milled slot that runs for about 4 1/2 inches toallow theupper leg to slide to and fro within the lower leg. A 1/4 inch bolt goesthrough both lower and upper to secure it so upper wont slide out of thelower leg if the bungees break.How are you supposed to "mill" these two slots??? I've scratched my headall day on this one - not to mention built two upper legs that I ruinedtrying.Would a machine shop be able to cut this slot. Is there a better way tosecure this assembly against coming apart than a bolt through them both.I'm about ready to sell out and take up golf....Help me if you can. Thanks, Bert________________________________________________________________________________Date: Mon, 31 Jan 2000 07:24:01 -0800Subject: Pietenpol-List: Motorcycle Wheel Drawings
