Rear pulley play/wobble - normal?
04/07/13 at 10:32:52

I was going over my still new to me 2004, and was cleaning the black portion of the rear pulley and noticed some play in it. It moves a bit along with the inside drum guard (sorry about the terminology.) It's not a lot of movement - about 1/16th of an inch or less - but should I expect to see any back there, or am I being a nervous newbie?

Reply #2 - 04/07/13 at 10:40:44 I can't answer absolutely precisely-how much is it OK... but on my Savage, when I found a similar backlash, changed the bearing in the drum rear pulley to a new one. since then I have traveled more than 10,000 miles away. and it is not repeated.
