Hello again!
I've installed a 14 tooth Robinson Racing steel pinion in my vintage Fox runner but though it appears to mesh correctly it feels a little lumpy and sounds a bit loud/notchy.
Everyone seems to suggest these pinions will prolong the life of the gearbox but i am thinking this is going to chew my gears up!
I researched and got them in the correct pitch (32dp if i recall correctly).
I've checked the spacing plate is in the correct position but it just doesn't seem/sound right......
Any Skidmeister words of wisdom for me?
Cheers! |

The wise one answers:
Sometimes the steel gears do this. Run it a few times and see how you go. Try slackening the screws, move the motor round a bit and tighten them back up? |
