Last night i finished tearing apart the graphite roller i had and then started on the Edinger i am going to make into a runner.
I wanted to check the 6 gear tranny out to make sure it is good.
I could not beleive what i saw inside..
Dude dyed the idler gears purple along with the rest of the white parts..
I love a good purple on well my wife, old mopars, and bikes.... tranny gears??? But i will say i can at least tell the gear wear path. All looks great. Idler shaft was sloppy and needed a washer..

More to come on the runner. Need to finish cleaning and start listing parts i needs and want to sell.

I feel like I'm wearing someone else's prescription eyeglasses looking at that pic.

crappy BB camera.. i will clean it up..

Maybe they used them as a test before they dyed other parts?

good point.
I hope i am not offending any one.. i just have not seen that before.

HI!... Hard to tell from that fuzzy pic, but those gears look to have VERY pointed teeth.
