Afternoon Woods and Woodette!
Mick, got your package in the mail today. Will let the kids open it when they get back from swimming at a frinds house. Thanks to you, Russ, Greg and all the other Woods for sending them chips.

Believe me, sometimes those marks are hard to see but Izzo can spot them in a second!
Follow up to shake, rattle and roll Ultra....I was over at shop, we opened it all up and every stupid part in there looked perfect, tensioner was fine,chain had 5/8" slack, no wear on anything. Pulled the clutch assembly off and could see the end of trans shaft looked like it had been heat treated. Bearing had heated up so much it melted and deformed the plastic and could actually see the ball bearings inside! Verified it with Mark and he said : That'll do it, but funny that it would go so soon"...Made in Japan bearing...new one should be ordered.
