My tach. gearbox was not working well, rivets replaced by 10/32 bolts, &
double nuts. The 2 halves would not stay in line axialy, or concentricaly,as
the
register from one side to the other was worn out. I was about to drill a third
hole & install 3 new 10/32 bolts with nyloc nuts. Instead i brought it to my
machinest friend, & stated what i really needed were bolts with a long shank
to fit tighter than a off the shelf hardware store bolt. In a matter of
minutes the thrd hole was drilled, a straight reamer was run through the 3
holes, &
off his shelf come 3 mil. spec. aircraft bolts & nuts, bolts were full length
of the case, straight shank, with threads only at the end. Both halves were a
slight interference fit onto the bolts, tap,tap, tap. Install the nuts. done.
A master piece of quality work in minutes! It has never worked better! Len
