belle macchine!
Spotted an oddity in the post below where the two "this post" links fail "Page could not be loaded" - presumably they used to/should do and there's more about. The www prefix needs to be removed for the page to load. Possibly a server RewriteCond/RewriteRule not handling the $1 after the recent server move/update?

I have never opened up an X1/9 transmission, but this is what I gather:
The right side outer race for the differential is "seated" in the case; pressed in until it bottoms out in the case. When you get there, you'll see that the gauge on the press starts moving up quickly.
The left side outer race is not seated the same way. Have a look at the pictures in this post by @rizthewiz and this post by @Steve Hoelscher (6th photo from the top).
So as I see it: With the full stack of shims and the bearing cover in place, apply a load of 350 kg to settle the bearings...

The last post to What did you do to your X1/9 today ? was on Friday 2024-10-18, so it is probably too old to show up in "What's new"
