That many mile would not make the effect like the front, as you found out. Good luck. Going to be interesting to see if a .004" run-out changes things.

Well I had a workplace incident that resulted in me tearing my left bicep tendon from the bone. Looks like I’ll be down for a while and unable to get the chain/sprocket job done. I’ll update at some point. Thanks for everyone’s input.

Shoulder injury, welcome to the club. High school incident. Still gives me trouble today, well over 50yrs. A residual to look forward to. What helped [guessing] was the finger walk up the wall. Therapy will show you what I mean. Could be a different exercise. Mine was a broken clavicle. Don't rush the recovery.

Thanks fellas. Definitely not a good time. I’m still waiting for an appointment with the surgeon to find out details.

ouch! (but glad to hear the vib went away)

Sorry to hear that! I managed a simple shoulder separation this summer for the first time and that was tender for 6-8 weeks

Hope it works out OK and you get back to life soonest

merry Christmas

Thanks Crude! Should have an appointment tomorrow. The holidays complicated me getting it taken care of as fast as I’d liked but that’s life I guess.
