Pinion Seal Replacement

There was a single scrutineering item that Damian had to resolve for Booger Mobile, and that was the replacement of the diff pinion seal.

Having purchased the part, Damian found someone who knew what he was doing to give him a hand!!

With a hoist and everything!!

Off with the old...

Gone!!

Nice shot...

Adjusting the pre-load doohickey...

New pinion seal ready to go back on...

Adjusting...

And punching the nut to lock it in place...

While it was up in the air, a quick check of the rear brakes...

Revealed a broken auto-adjuster...  gah!!

It also made the drum a bit scored...  time to find some new drums...

So, the pinion seal replacement was successful, and Damian also located a potential showstopping issue that there will be time to rectify before esCarpade...  that's a win!!
