Thats right shÃ*t lol every one Ive ever seen fitted the, adjustable platform is mounted at the bottom onto axle, makes SOOOOOO much more sense!Quote:

these tiny alternators are usually from kubota engines(or similar), as used in that crappy aixim thing, and also mini diggers, compact tractors etc....
Been mincing about lately... picked up this contraption. Will take to work & blitz it down on a lathe Monday.

Theres a huge gap :/ that was full of road crud :/ obviously its not an interference fitment so whats the deal with this gap being cunnigly pointed out by a pointy piece of carbon

The central cirlce metal insert is removable (for those who didnt know), but refit it and it leaves a huge gap? What do you here, pack it with packing grease/copper slip etc to stop crud ingress?
i thought you got bored of this and weighed it in lol
It's just a giant washer to hold the bottom pulley to the crank, if you tried to fit it without that it'd slide over the bolt. Fairly sure the pulley sits over the washer.
Yeah I know what it is like lol merely a spacer, but doesnt seem right what so ever thats there a huge ass gap around it :/
Also done some other mundane stuff today.... an bought some more bits this afternoon..... funkaaaaay :)
I thought the same, what was with the change of mind Mike then?Quote:
