thanks that is what I did. It tested at 20 ft lbs. I'm going to leave like that. Now I'm going to replace the quil bearing and I need some advice, got any suggestions?

nNewby with a greenie. While I'm replacing the bearings on my dive sleeve I when into the gilmer clutch and found that mine has 5 fiber and 3 metal plates. the stack is such that thier is no metal plate on either end. I'm thinking that the fiber plate on the ends rides on the aluminum not on a metal...

going to get new bearings today. how much clearance should I have between the gimer clutch housing and the bearing ?

Also in san diego. Newby with a greenie SN334548 trying to find drive sleeve bearings in SD. Can your help find them. thanks Pete
