Mart, I know you must be kidding about the preload wrench, yes? I would have thought the real world of preload methods crossed the pond long ago: Lock the shaft facing down into a bench vise, spin the banjo hard and fast with both hands. Correct preset will be just shy of one complete revolution.
NOW we’re off topic in an Early Ford V8 direction!
