Sesman:
You are certain that the drum is in the neutral position when inserting the screw and that the ball bearing is the correct one? I’m sure it will be fine and apologies for stating the obvious.

gary123:
Yes its in the neutral position I can see the indent, there is no ball bearing, its the latter kind. Just the screw and a collar.
I may have the wrong collar Ill post a pic when I get back out there, probably tomorrow

Oddjob:
Got to be the wrong collar. Does it jam if you don't fit the collar eg just the bolt?

gary123:
No it works ok without the collar. I just went out to try again and turned the collar over as one end was very slightly more rounded and now it works.
Possible the collar is worn?

Bryanj:
That bolt was modified early to late and without the tab washer can bind the drum, also the later bolt has a loose collar that fits into the drum groove to locate it sideways, if the collar is wrong in sizes, diameter or depth, it could bind as well
