Rotating Ring Gear

I'm a little late with info but it may help others in the future.

When i was building the CNC lathes we would put the inner bearing races / ring gear in the oven to expand the ID bores and put the outer bearing races / flywheel in the fridge to compress the OD dimention. Then we would assemble the two mating parts.

Being an ex-auto/jeep/truck mechanic i seen many flywheels in my day. Some ring gears were just pressed on with nothing else holding them. While others would have tac welds in maybe 6 places to hold them on and stop them from slipping on the flywheel. I figure welding 4 places on my int154 flywheel will work ok.

If you have a ring gear or any other gear that you can't replace that needs new teeth you can weld new teeth on by using Certanium Alloys & Research Company welding rod for welding new gear teeth on. This company offers welding rod for every application.
