Love the videos. Currently a motorbike enthusiast. Getting older, i have started to think that an MG might be a new direction for me. Picking up tips all the way!
An MGB is a nice easy classic car to live with. From a motorbike perspective though, you might find you're more at home with an aircooled volkswagen. Would you consider a VW based trike?
i have always worked from the rule that i tighten a bit to much. then i back off until the washer barely moves lock it and jobs done. I think it was a Mechanic that i helped as a teenager that told me that
If that works for you then happy days. I've used the method I showed in the video a good few times and it's always been grand. There are many ways to do these jobs right though.

The washer method is the way you're supposed to adjust the bearing play. VW mechanics will teach you this on your first day
Great video ! 👍
Thanks for the reminder to loosen mine off.
So, I'm doing this and i still have play in the rear drum. Yet if i tighten to where there is no play, it seems too tight and doesn't spin freely.
@@darrenrichard70 there's supposed to be a very slight bit of play.
I'll redo it again today, thank you!
