Bullseye 1st gen cranks help!!!

<< < (3/3)

Terry, would cutting a neat slot in the top hat with a dremel or hacksaw do the trick? Should give you enough play to get past the ridge but still maintain the correct diameters  :)

Gnarlyscoots:
Clint, that is great idea buddy and one I think I will try  ;)

As you can see with these pictures, the cranks are two piece, so the drive side crank arm is fixed to the axle. The top hat washer fits over the spline until it reaches where the splines hit the axle body. The ridge is not noticeable to the naked eye so I can't get a picture of it but, the axle slopes up, then down, around the ends of the splines.

I cannot really file down the inner of the top hat washer because it is very thin, 1.6 mm.

oldschoolace:
I can see it Terry. Think splitting the top hat is much more desirable than trying to sand down the ridge  :daumenhoch:
