Re: Full float axle oil leak

Just ordered a couple of 25X62X8 oil seals. Hopefully they will solve it, because it pissing out the other side as well now :lol:

Re: Full float axle oil leak

Yeah that seems like the only solution.

Is there not an oil seal on the market that could fill the gap without making up a metal adapter?

Full float axle oil leak

So I fitted a full float axle conversion a couple of weeks ago and now I have oil leaking from one of the wheels. It seams to be getting into the hub running through the bearings.
Has anyone els had this problem or know any way I could stop it?

Re: Project Bodge

Finally got it back on the road this week, cant belive it took me so long! Modified the rear bumper so the number plate is now slightly recessed. I think it looks abit better and is less likely to get smashed if i reverse into something. http://i982.photobucket.com/albums/ae304/CaptainWhiteStar/IMAG...
