Izzy's left arm, a re-repair
|
The first repair I did came loose again. I found out that the manufacturer installed the wrong size shoulder swivel bolt in this arm compared to the right arm. The bolt size should have been 5/16 as in the right arm, but they installed a 1/4 inch bolt. To fix this I had to remove the top of the shoulder joint in order to get the old 1/4 inch bolt out (clearance issues) and replace it with an 8 mm metric bolt (5/16 = 7.9 mm). I installed new washers/ nord lock and loctite and re-assembled the whole joint.
