So... I have a typical John Deere 70 Diesel that has a bit of an endplay problem. I do not have a dial indicator, so I have no idea what the end play is, but it is excessive. It does have a
taper-lock flywheel, and after I removed it, I took off the slinger housing, and found the remnants of a fiber thrust washer, and no steel thrust washer. After I received new washers (the
steel one is not cheap!) I put it all back together and before I put the flywheel on, I moved the crank with the clutch lever, and found that I had the same amount of endplay. My
question is simply this: why do I still have endplay?
Thanks,
Henry
