So decided to drill and ream the posts and floats as turning some bushes on the lathe would be too
thin. I used two 3mm (1/8") drills as new pivot pins and drilled the posts and floats out to size, i then
reemed the float holes to perfect size so that it pivots on the pin instead of the posts, just drilling
dosent give enough clearance for it to move, i had one 250 microns bigger than 3mm (1/4 of a mm
dont know equivalent inch size sorry) what i didnt expect was the amount of tang adjustment on
the float for floatheight compared to when i set them last time one of the pics below shows this.
Picture number 3 is the cut down drill in place, you probably have to grind it down if you haven't the
facility to cut hardened steel. No wonder they were sticking
Unfortunately I had a fire service emergency callout to attend to so not got them back on the bike yet
but will report back
