While I wait for the dog teeth to be delivered, I thought I would change the seals (front and rear) I built a tool for my wheel puller - have turned it to about 80 ft/lbs, kinda worried to crank it another turn,,,,,, I am using penetrating oil on the shaft,,,,,,,,,what next? Heat? Incantations? Ideas? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) |

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif) HEAT, MORE HEAT (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ar15.gif)
Well it came off, here is the flight path Seems that it took about 2 minutes of MAPP gas, while the oils burned and the gasket smoldered and then the BANG (as anticipated) with a 4 ft flight path. The reason is of course rust. Last, do the galley plugs look good in this picture? I spent an hour cleaning the rear seal and am concerned with the stories of loose plugs THANK YOU TEENERS!!!!

The oil gallery plugs @ the bellhousing can be JB welded after cleaning and scratching up with course sandpaper if you are concerned about them...I just do it regardless,good luck. |
