Re: 5/8 keyed shaft trouble

two things you could do... first is get yourself a 5/8 drill bit and bore out the bearing (fancy vice work if you are using a roller bearing)... also, the other side is to take some very fine grit sand paper and sand your shaft... be careful to do the whole shaft though so you may fit something the whole length up... grease her up and good luck to ya!
