Rob, If that was mine I'd drill the axle for a cotter pin. Loctite will probably hold it but a pin is easy to get out on the road and is positive. First I'd...
The shoe pliers were designed when shoes had rivits, you put the point into a rivit hole. a scratch in the material won't hurt. In the toolbox Danno has a...
There is always more than one way to skin a cat George. I've had zero luck finding nuts for Chinese threads around here, but I understand you can get them in...
Ahhhh that is a good idea George. I will see if I can get one that size. Is anyone else out there finding that their rear wheel shaft does not have a cotter...
Yeah I am not looking forward in pounding out that shock shaft back out. Especially since I got it looking nice with new paint and in place. I have trouble...
I keep several butter knives, a couple of spoons, and a trim remover in easy reach. I'd go around the edge tapping an old butt knife in with a hammer to lift...

If you insist on drilling the axle on the bike an old fashioned hand-crank drill (egg beater drill) works much better than a power drill--fewer broken bits,...

Haha true. When I removed my original pin, the cap would not budge at all from the pin. Both pieces came out as one unit. So you are removing the cap first and...
I don't do that a lot Rob. I think on mine the cap is a seperate part. I think I've heard of folks here saying they forced the cap up with the slider but I've...

I am no fan of cotter pins. I drilled out the cotter pin hole in the sidecar axle and the sidecar mounting nuts to accept lynch pins. They are working great,...
