Hi,
I'm doing the A4 to M6 swap and my latest problem is a loose fitting pilot bearing. I didn't measure the clearance yet but I'm pretty sure its around
.002" Do you think Loctite will hold the bearing in place well enough? Has anyone else had this same problem and how did you fix it?

 

If you want to fix it with locktite, use the stud & bearing mount - can't remember if it's 620 or 680, but it will do the job. Not sure if there is an oversized bearing available or if you got one that is undersized for some reason. I would start by measuring it if you can find the spec. and see what you got.

 

Good Advice!
I measured the crank ID at 1.096" using a telescope gage and mic the nominal bearing spec is 1.100 per the NAPA catalog. My first bearing measured 1.094" so I ordered another bearing yesterday and I did buy the loctite you suggested! I would preffer to have a press fit as removal of the pilot bearing with that loctite may be "pain in my as#" (say it like Mel!)
