Not the night I hoped for. Many things went wrong, but I guess that's all part and parcel of learning.
Starting with the reel housing, near impossible to fit the new bearings, and unfortunately when trying to get one in. The housing cracked. So, does anyone know where I can buy one? If that's a possibility?
Every new bolt I bought, was so.tight and seemed like the wrong thread for what I needed, but I guess that's what happens after nearly 60 years.
Next question, what is the easiest way to get the clutch onto the engine shaft? See the photo, this was as far as I got.
Do I need to assemble the clutch on the shaft? I assembled the clutch assemble then tried to fit onto the shaft.
All in all, it was a successful learning curve. But not a successful re-assemble. This is my mower after 5 long hours of assembly!
