Final Drive Re-fit

21 Feb 2019

Bevel box returned from NBS.  Nigel reported that the problem was something to do with the casing rather than the seals.  He said he'd been able to fix it, (the explaination lost me I'm afraid) and had also replaced the seals checking the drive spindle for wear as well.  He'd refilled it with low viscosity oil and left it a few days, no sign of any leak.  All F.O.C

Re-fitted to the bike and oil added today.

Also Nigel helpfully loaned a tap to fit the s/arm spindle threads, used this to restore the threads, now able to properly equalise the stubs either side. Tick!
