Rocker Arm Shafts
« on: June 30, 2021, 04:24:00 PM »
Can someone confirm that on the 400 the shafts should have the threaded end face outwards to enable extraction with a bolt? Just removed mine and they are all facing inwards, I'm guessing P/O thought they might gain some mileage by swapping them around? I plan to put them back in with the threads facing outwards. There is no obvious difference in the amount of ware, whichever way round they go.
