    MTD/Columbia V Plex Tav replacement.

    Hi there. Has anyone replaced their MTD/Columbia original V Plex Tav driver and driven pulleys with Comet 30 series components? My original V Plex driver is shot and the driven one has the jackshaft seized in place :( How did these original units perform compared to a Comet piece? Thanks

    Re-popped Gilson/Wards TAV Jackshaft Bracket (sorta)

    Had my first follow-up with surgeon today (he's pleased, so I'm pleased), but before I headed to Winchester I finished up a pair of TAV Jackshaft Brackets to install on Copperhead, my "mule" bike.

    Is a 30 TAV too small ?

    I am building a 212 Predator hemi with all the goodies just short of needing machine work to go any further. The engine started out with 6.5 HP before I added anything to it. 30 TAV's claim they are good to 8 HP. Should I go with a larger TAV and bush the crank to fit, or am I drinkin my bathwater?

    TAV Driven Pulley Locknut Question?

    Well I have a new generic TAV. It came with the driven pulley locknut (nylock) loose. Is this an adjustment or should I simply torque it to a certain spec. Or just go ahead and tighten it? Sorry for the newbie question but I did search and came up short. Three letter words like "nut" and "TAV"...

    TAV and fat tires

    So, I'm thinking about a tav for my fat bike, I guess I really should have designed it around one... My homemade setup uses a 3/4" jack shaft and a 1/4" plate. There's about 2 1/4" between the jack shaft sprockets. I'm thinking I could almost make a tav and backplate work if the sprocket was...
