front disc
« on: August 10, 2012, 05:39:08 PM »
Hi guys
Have just had my rebuilt  fail its MOT today. One of the fails was one of the front discs was out of true. Measured it when I got home and only 0.008" out so he's being a bit anal I think. HAs anyone got a disc under the bench they want to flog?
Second failure was a bent head stock.....ho hum here we go again back to the shed!!  :(

Simongill, I have a pair of front discs I am not using. If you still need, I will check them for warp but they look O.K.

Thanks archmill. My plan is ,is to get the frame sorted and then take it to another tester, but it would be good if yours are ok just in case!

Th headstock is slightly bent I think due to a front end minor shunt. Lesson to learn for newbie builders, get the wheels in and check the alignment before you continue!!!!!
