Thanks Leroy.

I have a problem with the Reduction Gear box's. THere leaking.
I know where one of the leaks is coming from because I forgot to put the outer o-ring on, but the others leak between the spring plate and RGB. It has to be the steel plug.

Q: I bought the re-seal kit for the swing axle, came with gaskets, one large o-ring and small, new split pin etc..., I know what the small one is for.
Can anyone tell me where the Large one goes ?

Also, the gearbox seal kit, came with large o-rings for the reduction casing, I looked in my manual, didn't use them, was not in the book, and I never pulled any out, should I Have used them.
I have no leaks from this sealed using gaskets, but it does have a really slow leak from the reduction boot case to gearbox.

But, other than that everything is good, in factory. Will commence work a.s.a.p.

Here are some recent pics. Enjoy guys.

Cheers

Thanks mate.
From what I can remember I bought 4 litres of coloured lacquer (your choice of color), thinners and flattening agent. If I still had all of them in the garage I could tell you exactly the names of each of them. But the flattening agent is like a paste in a paint tin, that you mix a certain amount to the paint and thinners mix. Depending on how Matt or satin finish you want. Hope that helps a little.

Yep great thank you. Assume you went with a single stage acrylic paint?

Yes I believe that is correct.
But, if I had to paint it again I would choose 2k. It has a much nicer finish.
You would be well of to ask your local auto paint shop to see if you can use 2k with a flattening agent.
Because I don't know.

4 years have passed. Decided to redo some body areas, Matter of time to complete now have all parts and components.
