Trying to put the hub on the crankshaft - Where can we get a hub install tool to draw the hub onto the crankshaft or is there any other method to installing the hub that i am un aware of.

 

Coat the crank snout with oil and use the hub bolt without the washer/spacer to get it started. That's it.

 

thanks - im a bit weary to use that bolt ill get an extra bolt at the hardwar store tomorrow. thanks.

 

I just did this a week ago, you need a threaded rod. 7/16" (20 threads per inch), which is a fine thread. The you need at least 1 bolt, and multiple washers so you can step it up to lay flat on the hub.

I also recommend chasing the threads with a die so they are ultra clean, once everything is on use a wrench and crank it on. Since you bottom out the rod, in the crank, the pressure is on the rod's thread, not the crank's

Most hardware stores do not have this.

Part Number: 92580A110

Found it on the website http://www.mcmaster.com/

Its a 3 foot peice but all you need is 10 or so inches, just cut it, chase it, sink it in and draw it on with hardend washers

 

Thanks !!!!
