Can anyone point me to a spec for side play tolerance on the bell housing on mc-1 (1980)? Seems a little excessive but there’s no slop up and down. Could be the shim washers have worn? Thx.

Don't know of any spec, it just should not have side play. Maybe @Bt Doctur will have a better answer

Thanks alldodge. I've pulled the hingepins. There's a little slop in the bushings, but not terrible. I have misplaced my mike, so don't have an exact measurement, but I'd say the washers are on order 10 to 20 thousandths. If anyone knows what thickness they are supposed to be, please holler. I'll keep checking to see if I can find some reference to thickness or play.
