Default Re: 8BA vs 59A Flywheels

It looks like a early wheel, 59ab style, The gear looks wide like 59ab and older. Everdently the gear has just come off. Put a new gear on. Walt

Hi Walt, The gear is not the wide one. It measures 12 7/8 I.D. The wide one is 12 3/8. It's just like the 8BA wheel I have layin in the shop. Do ya think this 8BA wheel is causing a problem running on the 59A? The gear on the bottom is the old one and the gear on the top is the wide early style.
