For F**l sake ... WHAT FECKIN PROBLEMS ??????????????
SHOW ME . WHERE ?
Mate, I’m done. It’s impossible to rationalise with the irrational. Enjoy your bike.

You're done because there simply isn't any evidence of your claim.
Enjoy your ride, an stop worrying about poxy rusty splines.
I’m done because you are clearly one of those types who is impossible to reason with. I get it, your a long standing member, lots of posts etc etc. Hard to except a perspective that conflicts with your own, the internet is full of them. I don’t worry about the splines, I never have.
The reason I asked my question earlier about whether it was supposed to slide in and out in normal operation is because I was trying to gauge how I'd imagine this happening under normal riding conditions? If it generally moves, I don't understand how it could seize? Drive shafts and prop-shafts on cars regularly have the same overall thing happen and I don't hear people shouting about it generally. I'm just trying the gauge if a rusty set of splines is the same as a non-functioning set of splines basically.
I know it doesn't look pretty, but as an engineer that works with metals in seawater on a regular basis I'm well aware that just because something looks shit doesn't mean its not still working right. Just my 2p.
I made the exact same point that if the shaft is moving in and out of the splines as the angle of the paralever changes as it goes up and down on the suspension then surely it cannot sieze in place. Things sieze when they are left static for a long time and the ferric oxide is left to do its dastardly work.
