+ | ====== Rocker Arm Bushing Reamer (94804-57) ====== | ||
+ | See also [[techtalk:evo:engmech04b#rocker_arm_bushing_replacement|Rocker Arm Bushing Replacement]] in the Sportsterpedia. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | This reamer is specially designed for reaming the rocker arm bushings from 1957 to present. \\ | ||
+ | It is the right length and cut to fit into the old bushing on one end of the rocker arm and ream the new bushing in the other end. | ||
+ | |||
+ | | "Jims" makes this reamer referenced to HD part number (94804-57) ((photos by Hippysmack)) || | ||

+ | ===== Lapping Tool for Rocker Arm Bushings ===== | ||
+ | |||
+ | A lapping tool can be made from a 1/2" wooden dowel and a small piece of sandpaper. ((photos by Hippysmack)) \\ | ||
+ | Make the dowel long enough to run the full length of the rocker arm plus enough to get a hand on to turn it (12" or so). \\ | ||
+ | Use a hacksaw blade cut a slot down the middle of one end to hold the sandpaper. \\ | ||
+ | Make the slot longer than the bushing so you can be sure to have contact on the full length of the bushing. \\ | ||
+ | |||
+ | |{{:techtalk:ref:tools:wooden_dowel_lapping_tool_1_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}}|{{:techtalk:ref:tools:wooden_dowel_lapping_tool_2_by_hippysmack.jpg?direct&300|}}| | ||
+ | |||
+ | Initially cut a piece of sandpaper to go one full revolution around the dowel. ((photos by Hippysmack)) \\ | ||
+ | Too many wraps will not slide into the bushing as it will then be too thick. \\ | ||
+ | You just need to turn or lap the bushing slowly and evenly. \\ | ||
+ | Grit of sandpaper will be determined by the condition of the bore and clearance desired. \\ | ||
+ | Insert the bare end of the dowel into the bushing to lap and exit the dowel out the non lapped bushing. \\ | ||
+ | This will allow you to basically line lap the intended bushing to help keep center between the two. \\ | ||
