cylinder studs

Post by scheckaet »

the thread on the studs are of different length.
Which one goes in the cylinder? I'd assume the longer but wanna be sure before I re-assemble everything.

Thanks

I haven't had mine off yet, but the microfiche shows the shorter threaded end down and the longer end up. Not sure I'd trust that though - just a diagram.

Well... that makes sense to me since when I rebuilt mine I had the long threads down and the nuts just barely thread all the way on. It wasn't like that when I tore it down.

yeah I figured it out the longer part goes up, the convex part (round at the end of the bolt) goes on top versus the concave parts at the bottom
