    Bell Housing Synthane Washer Thickness

    Does anyone know what the thickness of the synthane washer are supposed to be when new? I just reinstalled my bell housing after doing my bellows job and found I have some side to side play on the hinge pins. The synthane washers are silver colered so I'm wondering if they are worn down and full...

    Correction on my last post.. I meant 2 1/2" pipe. However most places don't carry that so I got a 2" coupler and turned it on the lathe to the right diameters. It worked like a charm. Bearing is in now.

    Nonskid..... check! Tomorrow is clean up excess and apply first full coat of brightside to seal in nonskid... I'm hoping it's ok to leave the tape until tomorrow cuz there's really no way to remove it without stepping in the wet paint right now...

    Tonight was pretty productive. Got down my first coat of the interlux brightside paint. I coated all the no non-skid areas by rolling and tipping. I love this paint, it rolls and tips wonderfully. I used just under about 5% of their brushing thinner and it worked great. After it dries...

I decided to mix up some more compound and fix and of the issues I circled with sharpie. That was a couple days ago, so...
