Re: Idler roller - how much tolerance / damage is allowed?

Hi John
That roller assembly has got to go back no matter what, so if it were me I would look at the roller assembly first to see if it's twisted and just file it to suit, I don't think that you could hurt it. :)

Re: Classic pictures Update 28/12/2017

Hi Fred
I looked at that but the chain looks as though it runs over the axle of the middle set of wheels which would turn them in the opposite rotation assuming its 6 wheel drive unless the top run of the chain drives the middle set some how. Can't get me head round it. :? :?

Also interesting to see the drive train to get the middle set of wheels to go in the same direction as the other four, or am I missing something? :?
