Johnboy GT Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 If stupidly tight then yea, just back it off a touch then Should there not be a hole in the shaft for a split pin aswell? Give it a tighten up with a power bar and if there is a hole line it up and fit a split pin bud! Link to post Share on other sites
ro55ifumi Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 ro55ifumi has wrapped his ramhorn mani really nicely, have a look at how he did it I think if you wrap it all uniformly leaving no gaps, it should be okay, even if the spaces between the runners are differentThank you and as already stated wrap in pairs start from the turbo flange end an finish at block endSoak the wrap in water before applying an wear gloves John Link to post Share on other sites
