Neil,

All the idler cranks have been sold, I dont think Liam is in a hurry to make more as they were not easy to produce.

I have been absent for a while and the KT was packed up for another time. I dug it out this weekend and thought I would fit the new idler cranks I got from Liam early this year. I do not have the email anymore telling me what needs to be corrected before installing. I know that the idler needs a larger retaining screw with these. What I fail to remember is where to re-drill the hole where the track adjustment arm attaches. I seem to remember 90 degrees from where they are, but wanted to confirm.

Hi Mark
No hole drilling require, I have emailed you the slight filing mod required.

I have had a few more enquiries for the KT / JT return idler cranks and have decided to make another limited run batch.
I will try and contact all those that ask for them but anyone interested please PM me.

Thank you
Liam

As a completely unsolicited commendation, Liam's return idler cranks, the Bee's knees, the cat's meow... the cure for what's ailing your KT/JT.

You need these...
