Lars 526 #240 Posted June 24, 2012 Here is another small uppdate.. i have rebuilt the tranny on it.. every bearings has been cleand up tested and and well greeased.. so i think i have a very good tranny to it now.. so here are some pict.. and around the hitch bolt i use gasket silicon, because thats why the hitch bolt get stuck in the tranny.. the water can get in to the bolt and make some rust on it.. so ill do put on gasket silicon around there and ill use copper pasta on the bolt.. ill also use that on the hubs etc.... The tranny is all back together and ready to get some paint now Thanks all:) 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
