Default Re: Maine Machine Shop to Replace wheel Bearing Races?

Hi,

Do you know what the dimensions of John Connolly’s sleeve are? I’d like to have that so I could ask the shop about how much grinding is involved although as said, setup time would take the most.

Thanks,
Glenn

You need to get the replacement sleaves from the columbia rear guy which a thinner then the ones mac sells. Interference fit and press them on
