Hi guys,
I am going to install the turbo tie rod kit on my 74. Read all I could find but had a question on the flat key to be used. The one on autoatlanta is square but I can't seem to find them here. Would the below "rounded" one work ? Size is 32 mm so that should be correct thks Dax Attached image(s)

Surprised you can get those anymore. Everyone uses sealed bearings. My old bicycle toolbox is filled with all the various BB sizes needed to repack all the bearings on the old Cannondale.

QUOTE(mbseto @ Oct 14 2020, 04:25 PM)  Surprised you can get those anymore. Everyone uses sealed bearings. My old bicycle toolbox is filled with all the various BB sizes needed to repack all the bearings on the old Cannondale. Cheap bikes still use the old standards. The park wrenches are good but not designed to crank down on the hardware. When you use them on a bike headset, you hold the 32mm flat on the bearing race while you crank down on the top nut with a large adjustable wrench. If you put a lot of torque on a thin spanner wrench, you end up rounding off the edges. |
