[QUOTE="ZedBed, post: 315452, member: 8054"] The peg in mine had a nasty flat spot. [img]http://i104.photobucket.com/albums/m166/zedbed99/ratty/DSCF3661.jpg[/img] With no parts available and nothing to loose I worked out there was enough "spare" material to get rid of the flat and got a machine shop to turn it down and shorten it. They expected it to be case hardened, but apparently it's not, it's just very hard steel of some sort - so they thought. This is a place that makes parts for F1 gearboxes, so they should know what they're talking about materials-wise? Seems ok so far but not done many miles. [/QUOTE]
