G'day again Jared,

Well, we are all learning in this world. On the strength of your question about the size of the hole in the eyebolt I just had a stooge round my collection and a look-see at the parts dogalogue and discovered there was an earlier clutch arrangement with the spring above the over-centre rod. The spring picked up the top hole in the clutch arm so that accounts for at least one of the extra holes. Also, the eyebolt in the earlier version had a nylon bush in the eyebolt. On the later one ( which is the one we are talking about), the eyebolt hole appears to remain the same large diameter but without the nylon bush. Illustration 1 and Illusration 9 of the parts list shows this. In short, rock on! smile .

Make sure the eyebolt can pivot in the arm.

My own machine has a sprocket that was bought at an engineering supplier. If I recall it's standard sprocket but they couldn't get one with the keyway so cut one for me. It was a long time ago and way before I started my collection of parts donors. It's a 10 tooth sprocket. If you can't get one I can have a dig around but in my wander 'round the shed just now I didn't notice any- which is surprising.

Wheel and axle hassles are a common theme unfortunately. I am a bit curious as the photo of the wheel doesn't look like any Greenfield wheel I've seen. Can we have a photo of the other side please?

I can help with a wheel.

The early wheels with the taper seem to have been a hassle and can certainly present challenges when trying to remove the wheel. That said, my own daily drive has this style of wheel and has never given an ounce of trouble. Later on they went to the wheel with the three bolt mounting which is much easier to remove but the mounting adapters do crack.



Tyres and tubes are standard items and can be procured from many places including the good folks at the ODK shop.

Cheers,
