The Rebuild

[Bob Carriere]

.... Hi Phil

Mine was good and tight and is one of the few parts I did not fully disassemble...(yet) I topped it up with a heavy thick Lucas synthetic gear lube and it does not leak........ well not like a sieve anyways...... the OD flat paint tends to show oil stains at the smallest possible leak....... but it is not dripping.

On the other hand, my totally rebuild T case with new bearings, bearing races, modern seals and Speedy Sleeves on all shafts.....leaks.... not enough to be a concern but the bottom section is shinny and usually has a drop hanging there......... and it is filled with synthetic oil.....and I knew that the synthetic oil might leak...... after all it is a CMP.... why should I deprive it from marking its territory. Same story for the tranny.
