Crunchy reverse

[syncropatrick]

Rear box oil change. After judicious use of the English language and a variety of wobble extensions managed to get the drain plug out.

Does this look OK?

Anyway, new GL4 in and its drivable again, ready for MOT, refit of prop shaft and some winter camping.
After that will drain again and change the leaking box nose seal and then work on getting the protection bars straightened and refitted ready for spring trips.

Just too late for Christmas

[HarryMann]

Seen better!

but at least its got new oil now Patrick. Theres' a couple of flakes there by the looks of it, maybe cut down on the eating out for a few months in preparation...

Looks quite normal to me...few spikey bits...wonder what they came from?

they came from the expensive bits

[syncropatrick]

Stalky bits brass colour they were, which probably isnt good news.
I don't have a heavy throttle foot nor an overly powerful engine, however my gear change can be a bit rough occasionally, especially in the cold mornings when my double de-clutch function isnt switched on fully.

[syncropatrick]

Any tips for re-inserting prop shaft, or is it as easy as aligning with location marks and spannering up?

[Mudlark]

Just insert to markings and secure and drive and hope

Some of the expensive bits are non magnetic...and there are no cheap bits...unless you don't need them them then there's loads..

Don't mention the "marking of propshaft"!!

I did on here some time ago and was severely chastised (no name mentioned)

Were there any nasty bits in the drain tray? (non magnetic bronzey bits)??

None thankfully.

Phew! ...and you sieved every fluid oz through a nylon stocking

Should hold out for many moons if you take it steady
