We’re finally getting back to that JD project…We’re setting up to rebalance the flywheels for the new aluminum pistons. Weigh everything, subtract 5 oz, divide by two and that’s the bob weight..Drill the flywheel until it is balanced…Then balance the other flywheel..

As it turns out, the wheels were about 2.5 oz out of balance for the iron pistons and just right for the new UL, aluminum pistons.. We love it when a plan comes together..Thanks to Larry P. for double checking our project..It’s always good to have another trained eye, verify..
