Starting to plan my build and I need some help from the Duster & Cat gurus. Thanks to posts from 45t & John G. it looks like I have a Duster M/X frame, and its not in too bad of condition.
The bearings are a little sticky. Anyone have any tips on how to get them out? Know what size they are? I'm sure a local supplier can help me figure it out if I need to.
I'd like to do a drum brake in it which means I'll have to weld in a stud since its not there anymore. All the sizes I see start at 4.5", my sprocket/drum measures around 4.25" diameter. Is this normal, will a 4.5 fit or should I look for a replacement sprocket?
The pics I've looked at show what looks to be a roller tensioner where the chain drops past the engine plate. Anyone know where I can get a replacement or if I should even worry about it?
I've attached pics to help with what I'm looking at. Thanks for the expertise!
