Hi all!
I am not sure if I was able to thank everyone who helped me with the
endfloat question I had earlier, so here goes:
THANK YOU!!
I appreciate all of the help and it seems like everyone had a different
way to do it. Ted Schumacher gave me a way that sounded pretty
intuitive (although I am sure proponents of differing theories will
probably disagree). He said:
Adjust the bearings with the brakes and wheel on. Seat the wheel and
tighten down. Grip the top and bottom of the tire with fingertips and
rock in and out. Back off a flat at a time until slight movement is
felt. Back off one more flat and cotter it. (Be sure to spin the wheel
some beforehand so you are not working against the grease.)
Please bear with my questions -- I am learning all of this stuff, and I
am so glad to have found such a resource. I will also try to impart
anything I learn I feel may benefit anyone here back to ya'll.
I also just got a set of Cosmic aluminum wheels and am wondering if
anyone knows where I can get center caps. MiniMania lists them on-line,
but no longer carries them. The guy there said they are being made for
the Japanese market only and he can't get them.
Thanks for the help!
Keep Triumphing,
Susan Hensley :)
PS -- Good luck/congratulations to our guys in Florida!
