having trouble fitting the crank on a zip

well im having trouble getting the crank in the cases, ive got the bearings on the crank and im trying to get the crank into the right hand case but it just aint happening, ive heated the case and sprayed the bearings with freeze spray and the crank goes in just under half the way but wont go any further??

does any one have any tips on helping the crank slip in?

thanks

 

mine slipped in fine using the heat/cold thing...

put the crank in the freezer, and heat the casing with oxy acetalene...

worked a treat.

 

cheers mate

cranks in the freezer now

and im going to heat the case up with a blowtorch, hopefully that will get it in imp:

 

blow torch will be too much and may warp the cases mate

 

oh right, well ive got a heat gun anyway

 

yeah that should do the trick,

i see youve ordered the kit :msn1:

bastard.... :bird:

 

haha yeah i have mate,

btw your undertray is in the post today

 

oops forgot to write about the crank

anyway ive had the crank in the freezer for 2days now and it still wont go in anyfurther than half way

is it in the barbeque box :rofl:

 

certainly is mate :rofl:
