Many thanks for the measurements. The mystery continues I'm afraid. I've had it apart and the bearings are correct, with the narrower outer rings. I also noted that the bearing carrier is probably scrap (should have looked more carefully before). The rearmost bearing has been turning in the housing and worn a noticeable grove. I'm guessing there's not much I can do about that? So I need a new one of those. Anyone got a spare they might part with for a suitable price?
Back to the insufficient protrusion of the taper if I may. The only remaining variables are the two ball bearings (taper and pinion), and the distance piece, which is the one that came out of the axle. Does anyone have the widths of the two ball bearings so I can check those please?
Many further thanks,
Geoffrey
