Extra final drive
« on: September 30, 2025, 04:54:39 AM »
Just purchased a extra final drive for my R65ls. It's a 32/9 like the original one. The plan is to rebuild and have just in case I need it. Found it on the bay store.

Good luck with it.  That's about the only thing I have not attempted

I have a worn 1979 R65 final drive that needs rebuilding. Do you know anyone I can pay to do it? I have too much drive train lash.
