I think the epoxy only comes in a 6 pack.....that's why so much $.

[longlast]

Noòoo you kidding me. Part number just said kit.  I'll find out when it gets here should be here by Friday with the the other parts. Could also be because it's got the HD logo and made in China stamp on the package

When that plastic tray deal first came out one of our enterprising members did some research and found the actual source of that specialized epoxy, as well as places people could order it.  I seem to remember it was pretty expensive even before Harley added its mark-up.

The cost for that part in the Jersey HD link is a tax free cost.

Anything from Jersey  UK  is tax free. Helps on the pocket book.

Didn't know that.

I had ordered some of that  jb  weld before and it never arrived,  had to claim back from eBay . It's still on eBay and says fast UK delivery not a thing said on it being banned

Had noticed the following while farting around at their website.  Last year some time....?

J-B Weld Original – Illegal in the UK
All J-B Weld products have been discontinued in the UK. The packaging supplied by J-B Weld is illegal as it does not comply with EU Regulations and is therefore not possible to import to the UK.

A replacement adhesive range, Power Maxed Adhesives, is available at: http://www.powermaxed.com/adhesives/

The replacement to the J-B Weld Original can be found at: Power Maxed Steel Power Epoxy

It seems like the left-hand don't know what the right-hands  doing. This is what I ordered for an unrelated little job 3 -4 month ago but like I said never arrived. 

But it's still up on eBay as of this moment

Remainder of the compensator parts came today.  Now it's the mater of putting it in   

The needle bearing I'm replacing with a thrust washer

[gmeikle]

Revamping this thread folks. Been 3 months and I am ready for another teardown. Thanks for all previous correspondences.

I have 2 different new thrust washers. Suspecting the needle roller bearing 3 part thrust washer may be the main source of my primary noise

A new "PEEK" thrust washer part number 40100064

AND a new PART NUMBER 6557 THRUSTWASHER

Longlast which one did you eventually use ?

I also have a new genuine HD primary chain which may as well go in at the same time. The latest/greatest genuine auto tensioner is already in there since last teardown.

I have done 1000 K's and was "hoping" the thing would settle down but alas not to be. 2000 RPM has a whirring/chattering just at cruising speed that does not fill me with confidence !!
