Hope I answered them..DaveShane Nelson wrote:I don’t see what all the fuss is about grease making a mess. If your replacing your pilot bushing you probably have a leaking rear seal unless it’s been fixed before and a huge mess to begin with, what’s a little grease mess? If you have touch control you also have all the fluid from removing the lines to deal with as well. Don’t forget to check the fit of the ID of the new bushing and the OD of the shaft AFTER installation or you’ll be splitting it again...Oh yeah if you need help with a leaking rear main, check with Tim ( tst ) ... he can machine one for you that works great and you won't have a problem with your seal leaking...If you need any other help give a shout...
Thanks for the clarification on everything. Yes, tst (Tim) machines the rear main and puts a new seal in cheaper than you can find it anywhere else or do it yourself!
