Uhh - you're welcome - for anyone else who wants to see it - there's actually a link (the words "this thread") in the post that should take you there.

Yes, I used your provided link, but it was a long thread and a bit convoluted because it covers a couple of good topics.  One is the poly bushing that Suzuki came out with during that period and sandwiched on the outside is the discussion of a bearing housing.  One of the guys on the Auzook forum provided a cad diagram of the housing (below).  It doesn't cover the bearing housing bolt taps very well, however I think a person could figure that part out since they did the lion's share of the work on it.   A great forum site by the way and I am sure a great bunch of guys.  I've thought hundreds of times about the great people on these forums and what a drag it is so many live so far apart and are separated by thousands of miles of ocean in many cases.  It would be a blast to bring several thousand of them together.

A bit of topic, but I couldn't agree with you more - in fact one of my early experiences with this forum was posting a want ad in the classifieds just after I got my GV, and within a week or two, one of the forum members mailed me the clips I was looking for - he wouldn't take money for the part, and he wouldn't take money for the postage.

Rick - I've never forgotten that - thanks again...
