Re: Loose rudder

OK. I forgot to mention that it's a good idea to soak the brass collar bearing cover with WD40 the day before to help it slide up when you hit the swan neck.

Re: Loose rudder

hi got same problem should the small bolt stop the collar moving and then allow the swan neck to move inside

Re: Loose rudder

No, according to Dot Piper, you don't need to touch the small bolt. I can't remember what it's for but it doesn't stop the rudder post moving.
