No lie, Jim. I've looked at where the bleed screw is on more than one slave cylinder and found that when the cylinder is attached to the housing, the bleed screw is below the highest point on the cyl

I had the splines go bad on my '70 B once. The right front wheel spun on the hub when braking hard, spun the knock-off nut off. Had to cut the wheel off the hub with a torch, replace both wheel and h

Well, look here, Paul, the only maintenance one can pull on the splines is to lubricate and inspect them them at regular intervals. Obviously, the wheel rotates on the hub a fraction of an inch each

Call it what you will, they need replacing sometimes. The only question is the replacement interval. The shop in Santa Rosa, CA, that replaced my hub and wheel were well familiar with the problem, so
