All the Winters & Frankland rears with alum. spool measure 2.031 dia. at
the journal. They use a .003/.005 interferance. I freeze the spool over
night and place the bearing on a 100 watt lightbulb for 20 minutes to
assembly. Aluminum will really move if you try to press the bearing on.
Hope this helps.
