Rear Pulley Bolts
Just found today that the bolts on my pulley had come half way loose. Found it while I was washing it. On the rear, I've got the 18x5.5 RC Components Czar Eclipse Wheel, pulley & rotor. Checked the rotor but it's fine. I've only had the wheels on now for about 3 weeks. This also includes a good amount of time on the Dyno. The stock bolts wouldn't work & I was already using Diamond Engineering Fastners. Couldn't get any of the bolts to work because they were too long. Ended up buying some chrom bolts that fit a softail that seem to be the right length. Didn't have a washer either that would fit in the counter sunk bolt hole for the pulley. I just bought a new set of the same chrome bolts & bottle of red locktite. The bolts that came loose were torqued to 65 ft lbs & had red lock tight on them. Any idea of what I should be using for bolts on the pulley? This wheel is on the rear 07 Dyna Street Bob. The really sad thing is, is that my pulley was loose enough to rub the outer edge paint off pretty good on the inside of the swing arm. Thought about just saning down the flat spot some with 400g sand paper & trying to repaint that flat spot. Any help would gladly be appreciated. Suppose to go to the Outer Banks Bike Week this weekend.
