Sorry if this posted in the wrong forum. I have a math problem that I would like to solve for an engine that I am rebuilding
I have installed a thrust bearing that is 1.976mm thick. This should produce 0.12mm of play in the crankset, however I am only getting 0.02mm.
So I need to grind down the bearing to "X" thickness to achieve the desirable 0.12m of play
Is my math correct?
(0.12-0.02)/0.12 = 0.83333
=> 1.976mm *0.83333 = 1.646mm
So, if the bearing is ground down to a thickness of 1.646mm I should get my 0.12mm of endplay
Thanks for your time
