[@lettyguerragirlbills792]

Great info. Appreciate the clarity. Your approach is the best I’ve seen. I Been looking for some info on on 280/290 lower dp’s. ……from the ayr cave shop…..is it a possibility? No pressure, just appreciate your approach. Thanks Mike. Sent from wife’s iPad, lol.

[@TheAyrCaveShop]

I have some footage of a parcel repair / inspection. Just need to find some time to edit and post. Thanks for the view and Sub !

[@markwadsley1686]

Very good information. I cant beleive a shim would make that much difference to its operation??

[@bearsrodshop7067]

Didn't know Volve had a boat motor division until today,,cool. Dean, I use Loctite 507 as a gasket in the pass on MB manual 4 sp transmissions. Have had great results, and you mite check the specs to see if it would work on future rebuilds? Great when we can share non machining content once in a while. I get to do this for next 2 month when I have jump back to sewing up interiors...:(< Thx for sharing Dean, and best to you, family, and friends over the Holiday Seasons,,Bear.

[@TheAyrCaveShop]

Thanks Bear, Yeah quite a variety of projects seem to show up..Lol ATB....Dean

[@paulcurel1316]

Question on the fly wheel cover housing/bell housing. After replacing the bearing in the housing should there be any play on the shaft ?

[@TheAyrCaveShop]

Paul, If you have a single bearing bell housing, yes there will be some play even with a new bearing due to the clearance built into the bearing. There are 2 bearing versions also (usually diesels) they should not have noticeable play. Hope that helps....Dean

[@paulcurel1316]

@@TheAyrCaveShop thanks the 2 bearing one are the bearings sane size ?

[@adrianhafslundfrostrud5361]

Thank you! I have a short shaft and need a long coupling. Do you have the part number for that? :)

[@TheAyrCaveShop]

I'll have to check on that part number. I had an extra long coupling If I still have it I'll let you know.

[@adrianhafslundfrostrud5361]

Thanks. I took a gamble and ordered coupling with part number 3852268👍🏼

[@andybokor4872]

Hey how do I contact you about those alloy thrush washers to replace the brass one on bottom drive box, you said you sell them thanks andy

[@TheAyrCaveShop]

Hi Andy, Go to Ebay and search for this item number 183806116885 or send me an email [e-mail]

[@simonechiri6466]

hi, the propeller shaft of my volvo 270 does not rotate freely as in the video, and there is a noise of gears, how to fix? thanks

[@TheAyrCaveShop]

That's not good. Once the gears are damaged there not worth fixing. Best to start watching for a used replacement unit. Note the gear ratio needs to match in the lower. The upper 270-290 are all the same ratio and in most cases will interchange. Major differences are the steering puck number of screw holes and the U-Joint yoke on the engine side fine or course spline..
