Yes, I can bind. And the friction stickers literally disintegrated.
Friction stickers don’t last too long, which is something many people, myself included, do not like about Duncan. Use the silicone stickers, they should last a lot longer. I took apart my Metal drifter a couple of nights ago because I had nothing else better to do and it appeared I have the factory friction stickers still in there. I could be wrong, but I’m ordering some silicone one from here since I have a few other Duncans that need some maintenance.
Shims, thin lube, stack kit, and axle should arrive tomorrow!!! I’ll let you guys know how it goes.
