Max,I find I am full of questions and puzzlements after I've read your post.I am pretty sure your siderods from 2 to 4 are not on the same center as the axle center to center.and it is not too far off...Your solution works, so there is no need to flog the mechanism.gotta ask this one though...the rear driver isn't gyrating?victor

hi sizemore,enlongating the hole creates another problem, as max says.Given how small the hitch is, I would try it.Please don't skip this next sentence.Enlongating is part of the path to a creating proper siderod fit, if you decide to re-position the hole.The watch and clock repair people fix out of position holes by filing the out of positionpivot hole away from the wear and then reaming the hole to fit a bushing.That is what one does to fix these siderods.it is a lot of work to make tiny bushings.... and who pays?it is usually better to not start...
