#290808 Greysnake (User) I'm so far behind I think I'm first. Platinum Boarder Posts: 7911 Lock washer on front Drive pulley/Help 1 Year, 11 Months ago   Ok last week I posted on finding the nut on the drive pulley loose and catching it before it caused any damage. Here's my delima,I got the lock washer with the tabs to bend over the nut. But when The pulley is put on there are no splines left for the lock washer to fit on. I guess I'll have to put the compresson washer back on with lots of lock tite on the nut and torque it to spec's then take a punch to the same place that the factory did. Has anyone come across this problem and if so what did you do. Thanks,Martin.   Logged     Last Edit: 2010/06/20 15:06 By Greysnake.   06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #290820 Erbman02 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3805 Re:Lock washer on front Drive pulley/Help 1 Year, 11 Months ago   1700's do not use that lock washer, only on 1600's   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #290825 Wewalaw (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 374 Re:Lock washer on front Drive pulley/Help 1 Year, 11 Months ago   I would think if the shaft lenghts between the two year models was not shortened and the compression washer is approximately the same thickness as the tab washer it should work. Maybe you could have the pully nut machined down a few thousandths to compensate for the extra thickness of the tab washer if there is a difference. Like they say my .02.

Greg Greg that would not work because all of the splines are taken up by the pulley. I think Niel has it right,which I was afraid of. It must have been one of Moma Yama's better idea's. But thank you for your thought's.   Logged     06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #290828 Greysnake (User) I'm so far behind I think I'm first.

Platinum Boarder Posts: 4344 Re:Lock washer on front Drive pulley/Help 1 Year, 11 Months ago   Is there a square groove machined in the shaft? Screw on the nut (I use an air impact wrench) and using a small punch or screwdriver, peen into the square groove, the thin machined area in the inside of the nut. Sounds complicated, but there is a thin place on the outboard side of the nut, right on the thread area. That is what locks the nut on (unless you put the nut on backwards....)   Logged     Grow Old or Die Trying...   The administrator has disabled public write access. #290831 Greysnake (User) I'm so far behind I think I'm first. Platinum Boarder Posts: 7911 Re:Lock washer on front Drive pulley/Help 1 Year, 11 Months ago   Your right fireman and no I didn't put it on backwards luckly. The factory manual shows that lock washer as a new part. Was just hoping it would work.   Logged     06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #290832 Wewalaw (User) Senior Boarder Posts: 374 Re:Lock washer on front Drive pulley/Help 1 Year, 11 Months ago   Does the tab washer have two tabs, one for the nut and one to bend over the pulley? I'm not understanding how this tab washer would work without engaging the shaft splines. What's it's second anchor point, with the nut being the first?

Platinum Boarder Posts: 7911 Re:Lock washer on front Drive pulley/Help 1 Year, 11 Months ago   It has two tabs that fold over onto the nut to lock it in place. The inner circle of the washer has little teeth that slide over the shaft to keep the washer from moving. On mine there is no room for the washer to fit on the shaft. Hope that helps.   Logged     06 Midnight Silverado *nothing shines like a star*   The administrator has disabled public write access. #290838 Erbman02 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 3805 Re:Lock washer on front Drive pulley/Help 1 Year, 11 Months ago   Greysnake wrote: Your right fireman and no I didn't put it on backwards luckly. The factory manual shows that lock washer as a new part. Was just hoping it would work. I went to a parts fiche and looked under both models, on the 1700 it did not have that lock washer, but did show it under the 1600 fiche. and actually, if one does use the washer, you can get away with just bending one tab, so if need be, can use the unused tab a 2nd time around instead of buying one again. I never saw how the 1700 locked on the pulley shaft.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
