Pressureangle Posted April 15, 2022 Posted April 15, 2022 K, fixed the problematic Panopticon photo failure and deleted the posts. For your viewing pleasure.I wasn't going to inspect the rear gears, but the little voice said 'Dooo Eeeeet'. So I do it.I've looked as closely as possible through the fill hole in the past, and didn't really like the surface finish I saw on the ring gear. No idea what was in it when I got it, probably the factory lube. I've always run RedLine shockproof in this one, and surprisingly I think the surface finish is better now than it was before. For this reassembly, I'll be using Liqui-Moly because I can't get Chevron Delo ESI. L-M also has borate additives, so should be as good. Ah yes, we'll be having the transmission out as well, due to enormous end play in the output shaft. I have a helical gearbox on the bench nearly ready I meant to swap in a long time ago, I guess I know my next move. 3 2
docc Posted April 15, 2022 Posted April 15, 2022 Those are some fine looking “pressure angles” . . . [ I had to move my silly comment to match. I'll clean up the unnecessary comments related to the images. Thanks to all for reporting the issue. And thanks for reposting, @Pressureangle ! ] 1 1
