Jon,
As far as Ive been able to tell, the haft diameter changed in 94! It went
from 3/8" to 10mm... One of the reasons we never made a ported 93 and
earlier with a stainless steel shaft! The bearings were 3/8" bore and didnt
fit the 10mm shafts. They flow a bit better than the 10mm shaft, but we go
with 10mm since we remove half of it.. we want as much strength as we can
get!
Bruce
