Before installing the hub, I dressed the sealing surface with some emery paper.

I used some 1000 grit emery paper. And then rinsed the hub with solvent.

For the installer, I used a Jeep hub socket.

Thanks for the reminder, Ian--I forgot the O-ring. I think I had it for the first build attempt, but lost it in the shuffle. I just ordered a new one.

I owe you one!

I also realized I forgot a couple of the oil galley plugs. Here are the two galleys on the side of the oil cooler mounting flange.

Now I have one very small plug left over. I don't see any of the small galleys that were opened and threaded.

My next project is creating and installing a new oil dip stick tube, since the original was pretty beat up.

I bought a 1mm and then a 0.5mm wall tube, both 8mm OD (original on the right).

That was based on my measurement of the original tube main section.

But the part that inserts into the engine case is larger, about 8.4mm. Now I have to figure out how to expand the base of the tubing.

Probably 1/8" NPT, would be installed on the face of the case near the dip stick tube. Take your time, don't get too anxious and miss a step or two.
Thanks for posting, many of us are following your build

Got your six (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) though in this group that could take on other meanings! Your build is spectacular.
