Motorcycle Repair: JACKSHAFT INFO, having hope, panka

Question
I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY JACKSHAFT MESHING WITH MY FLYWHEEL IN MY 89 FLTCU. I WAS TOLD TO CHECK MY JACKSHAFT AND THE HUB GEAR. I WAS STARTING TO PRICE THE REPLACMENT PARTS AND RAN ACROSS A ONE PIECE JACKSHAFT. WAS WONDERING IF IT WOULD IN YOUR OPINION BE WORTH THE EXTRA COST OR SHOULD I JUST GO WITH A OEM JACKSHAFT?

Answer
Hi Bear,

Theres a real good chance the outer bearing (in the inner primary) is worn causeing this issue. I would purchase a new outer jackshaft race, plus an OEM jackshaft assy..
This should cure the issue your having..

Hope this helps!!
