Crankshaft Pulley

Hi,
I'm still looking for a 2litre pinton crankshaft pulley to fix my megajolt trigger wheel to. Diameter approx 115mm.
Surely someone has one spare????
Can if you wish swap for a brand new double pulley!

flak monkey likes making pulleys (well, don't know if he likes making them... but he can make them)

maybe he could make one with a trigger wheel built in?

the trigger wheel needs to be made of steel/iron or it won't work

Hi Geoff could you use the one you have if machined to fit the trigger wheel ? if so then you could call over some time with it and im sure I could machine it for you.

Hi Paul,
Thats a very kind offer. Do you reckon that you can cut/turn off the front section of the double pulley it's a cast one?

Probably, I cant remember exactly what the pinto pulley is like but assume it is just a solid cast pulley with 2 vees ? have you got a trigger wheel yet ? if so then as long as theres enough metal to turn down to leave a spigot for the wheel then it should be ok, the wheel will want a few screws through it to retain it also.

The pulley is a solid one with two vee's and I believe that it should be possible to remove the front of the pulley on your lathe. There should be enough of the pulley left to attach the trigger wheel (which I do have) onto the remaining part of the pulley. How you do it I need to work out. I'll try this evening to send you a couple of pictures by email. Cheers mate!
