Free wheel hubs
marjan:
I must admit that I sometimes have to resort to using a pair of plyers on mine when they haven't been moved for a while so perhaps a strip down is overdue :? :?
wheelspinner:
You should engage them for a few miles every couple of hundred miles just to keep all yours bits lubed....ooh err
buckshot:
Hi,if you mark the end cap and the outer with a dob of lined up paint before you remove it saves all the fiddling about when you reassemble.Dont pack them with grease as it will just make them stick a good smear of oil is usualy enough.hope this helps.
P.R.Howler:
As for not packing them with grease, well, oil wont last 2 minutes, and as the book says pack with grease, thats what I done.
If you carry a spider type wheel brace, cut a wide slot in one of the sockets that dont get used and you have an instant tool for stiff twisters that shouldnt get lost........
LP32:
Thanks for the tips. but after looking more and more I am maybe thinking of Auto hubs? are they worse or better than manual. What sort of price am I looking at. The bug is starting to bite. :shock:
