Honda-SOHC

Had my lower engine case returned from the engineering shop with the snapped cam tensioner bolt removed, redrilled with the Ebay replacement. All good

Hi,

so I thought I put the bronze/brass bushes in the swing arm (I did soak them in oil for 3 days, not sure is if it makes a difference?).
I then slid the hollow tube in by hand, tight fit so great.
I then cleaned the swing arm bolt and I thought I try it in the swing arm tube for any play, damn thing gets stuck. I think the swing arm tube is bent?? Is that possible. You cane see by the pictures that from one side the bolt goes through quite away before binding, the other bonds straight away!
It's not the original one and cant put my hand on the one I removed yet, as soon as I will, i'll try it.

PS, is the bolt zinc plated?

Hmmm, I recall a comment 'just bolt it all on now!

unsure yet, maybe bar ends

I've ordered one as well but have an engineering firm do it for me as they need to remove the broken bolt first. Hopefully get some pictures when done.

always take the advice of a nurse ;

Thanks Nurse Julie
