Truing the flywheels to less than 1 degree is not a simple process, in some cases it may take hours, but is well worth the effort. Very interesting and informative. Thank you.

I have a 2004 sportster taking a measurement of my crankshaft in the truing stand Exactly where you were measuring I’m getting .002 The service manual says to measure on the outer ends of the shafts. Measuring there I’m getting .004 on both ends. Service manual states anything over .002 on the ends should be serviced and turned. Thoughts I this? I was always told to measure closest to the flywheels. I’m wondering if truing is necessary. Thanks
Thank you VERY much! Machinist here, im already drooling over making a dedicated truing rig like that. Nice! (Always had the luxury of a lathe at work, mines to small ...)
When the crank is fitted into the cases I inject a bunch of oil into the connecting rods on the crank pin race, this way I do not have to remove the rods after final fitting after honing/cleaning and risk dropping a needle etc
You really don't need the music. It just distracts from what you are doing. Peope tune in to see your expertise not listen to the band. Don't take this comment as a negative. What you do is great.😎👍
the problem is after all that time is spent aligning the flywheels they won't stay trued, if you can tap them into alignment how much would it take for it to go out of alignment, if you balance them really well they may stay true, for a longer time but probably not the life of the engine
We always make sure they are at .000- .001 runout max. One side is keyed and the other side is tapered. Harley has made them this way since the beginning. Balancing them is a whole different procedure
Yes: Nice one, Getting those diel gages to stay still, means You have cracked it. Don't forget to drop some oil on the big end bearings, 'sorry'; could be telling Grandma, how to suck egg's !#@/???👍
I like the strength of your videos. I have a question. Is the roller bearing race on the right side of the shaft suitable for grinding in Evo 1997? Thank you 😊

Thank You, you got that right. Some true pretty easy but some wheels can be a pain!

Wow!. Zero run-out!. That is INSANELY accurate, Amazing!
Thanks!🤙🏻
Hey Stewart!! Was great meeting you Friday with Catherine! And the burger joint was GREAT!!
Now I’m getting hooked on these vids! Great work!!
Mark
many are hush hush with their v-twin knowhow, thanks for being honest clear and concise.
🤙🏻
Excellent video, thanks for taking the time to share. Cheers
Really liking these videos. I’m rebuilding a 52 panhead and these videos are a great reference! Cheers from the UK!
Thanks! Nice! More Videos to come!
I wish it was that easy! 4 me lol oviously your very good at what you do. Thx hope 2 see more ! Thank you
Thank You! Some are more harder to get true then others!

hey where did you get the stand or what did you use to make it
Big compliments , from Lithuania!
Thanks!
Nice.. Where can i buy one of those truing stands? 🙏
This is an old one that my mentor has, he’s had it for over 40 years!
i had the same flywheel in the evo engine. 4 1/4 stroke
🤙🏻
Extremely professional!
Thank You!👊🏻
Do you also have to get it balanced or just away with true
where is assembly lube?

@@Stew_mcandrew gotcha nicevwork goodluck and God bless
My guy we need any ore of these videos
More To Come! Thanks!👊🏻
Fantastic video. I am looking for someone to build me a pan shovel from scratch. Is this something that your shop does?
How do you know which sides to squeeze or spread on the last step?
Just learn from time, some wheels are easier to true then others

Tatro Machine hits the crank while in the truing stand; would it depend on what stand?
Trato uses a big , fat, thick indestructible truing stand
the problem is after all that time is spent aligning the flywheels they won't stay trued, if you can tap them into alignment how much would it take for it to go out of alignment, if you balance them really well they may stay true, for a longer time but probably not the life of the engine

I d like another UL.
Any plans for more build videos?
Yep I have lots of footage just too busy right now to make more videos. I’ll have some new ones up soon!
That crank got less runout than a brand new m8. 😂
😂
👍
The music only takes away from the video
Then Put It On Mute & Put On Your Own Music🤙🏻
@@Stew_mcandrew no was easier to stop the video and go to another one. which I did
That's disgusting music.
A)What trivial crap to complain about
B)You could keep your incorrect opinions to yourself, and...
C) The trash always takes itself out.

Crankpin must be pressed with hydraulik press into cones BEFORE tighten the nuts!
That's for twin cams engines
@@ELMARQUESOThat applies for ALL crankshafts with conical crankpins
had a 37 UL restored it 400 miles later it was stolen, now I have 71 FL
Wow That’s Brutal!
