287c sprocket sleeves question

Folton77 ยท 2012-07-14 07:37

I have a "black cat" 287c with 1887 hours on it. It has 2 speed and DLS. About 50 hours ago I replaced all of the sprocket sleeves. Inner and outter. now they have this deathly bad squeak. :Banghead why is this happening and how do I fix it? I've tried using penetrating lube but that only works for an hour or two before it goes back to squeaking. I really don't want to spend that much $$$$ on penetrating lube. Please help?
