Yes it is my Man. It is tight too. ;D
I spent at least six hours working on the red one tonight.
That SOB would not cooperate. The donor was from an older 114H. The handle side plate kept rubbing on the gears.
I knew it needed attention, and I have put it off long enough, because I knew it would be a royal PIA.
It has a double step inside the plate. It was a top hat quick change model.
I didn't want to slice it up.
I took out the older Black Pearl Hex gears and went with an insert with the stock steel main and double ss dogs.
I finally got it right and it can join the other three now good to go.
The main kept rubbing on the top side of the plate.
It probably would have wore in, but I knew I needed to make it right.
Lots of options to make the old work with the new. Different sleeves, stars, gears and bridges. It is tiring to make a match work.
You have to keep at it.
Life is Good!
