• Husqvarna Motorcycles Made In Sweden - About 1988 and older

  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

MK and ML Lower Steering Bearing Cup

Vinskord

Husqvarna
AA Class
Is the diameter, as shown in the picture, of the lower steering bearing cup on the 76/7 ML frames the same as for the lower bearing cup for the 72/3/4 MK frames? The OD of the bearings themselves are 40mm for the MK and 50mm for the ML.

I don't know however on an MK the area between the arrows in your picture is 34.10mm based on the race from my shelf.
 
I think the timken cups might fit into the MK frame. A guy here bought timken cups from vintagehusky.com and they fit into the ML frame he was working on.
