How much slop is acceptable for the cush drive before replacement needed?
Thanks

Skorpion Cush

First check the sprocket bolts - mine loosened up slightly and it looked just like the cush rubbers were getting sloppy.
Catch it early to keep the hub from getting boogered up.
Sorry I don't have a spec. on allowable clearance on the drive....

It's possible still - it can loosen without the nuts backing off.
The bent over retainers on mine were still engaged.
Easily checked by watching the outer hub center / sprocket for movement when rocking it in gear.....
