mongoose 1 piece crank

(1/2) > >>

meticulous:
just put a 'mongoose stamped' one piece crank on a 1982 gusseted mongoose, useing a 'mongoose stamped' bottom bracket, but the last nut (lock nut) hasnt room to go on the thread, if i remove the last washer that it tightens up to, it will just about go on the thread. Who knows what have i done wrong? as this cant be right :idiot2:

Have you got a washer on the drive side ... if so, removing it will free up some thread on the non-drive side  :daumenhoch:
