Nearly clean ?.....Ya missed a bit just over there.
Now piccys of the intermediate shaft and thrust washers
and torrington rollers..........
saving that for ron and it was 11pm and we ran out of petrol
good to see you have started
but your cleaning is only started
you have a few things to further strip
then clean and clean, then clean again
every bit of crap you do not clean out will run around until it causes something to die.
and when it is clean( like a operating theater)
cover it so no crap from out side comes along and stuff's up what you have just done.
one thing that helps keep your tools clean as well as your hands
also use kero not petrol, it does not dry out, and bit's start rusting very quickly if you use petrol
cheers

yer that was my first clean and we will do it again when we get our parts.i would sooner use kero but dad prefers petrol.i want to make up a bit of a wash tub i know that they are only about $80 but i think i should be able to make something up myself with stuff laying around.we will further strip the parts when we get all the bearings and seals.
where can i get a transfer and/or gearbox rebuild kit(bearings seals and gaskets) in the transfer case there were bearings from england, italy and usa ;) so some one has been at it before.i want to order the the bearings and seals this week
