Les Henson Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 My axle is 20L and suffix C - it has railko bushes. I'm not sure you can just swap to a taper bearing, I think the swivel bousing is different as well. Les. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Homba Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 Thanks for the reply Les. am i right in thinking that if the bolt head is 17mm then it will be railko bush ? cheers Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white90 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 No always as I first thought mine are 17mm top 13mm bottom and they are taper bearings ones I've done before were 17 top/bottom and they were Railko Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Homba Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 thanks Tony is there any way of telling without taking apart . if i remove the top pin can you see in enough to tell ? cheers Iain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
white90 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 yes pull the top pin with a jack supporting the disc/hub weight or you'll lose all the oil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
