DB3-4 and YB Wheel Adjuster

[DaleOrto]

Hello guys,
I just picked up a a DB3 that needs a little TLC.
The worst thing is that the Previous Owner stripped the threads that the axle screws into !! and Simply cut off the end and put a nut on it! So the adjust twists and self destructs under load. Took me about and hour to get it loose..
It looks easy enough to make...but before i do, anyone have a source for this part?
Left side rear wheel adjuster.
Importer says no...and if you need anything else..

thanks
Dale Orto

Well guys..
I couldnt find a wheel adjuster for my DB3...
So my buddy alex..made me one on a mill.. its thicker in the threaded side. If this fails again we have plans to press in a threaded steel insert for the ultimate fix...

Many times this is what you have to do, if you ride your bimota. It makes life interesting.
