Hello everyone! As of today, we have 90 registered! That's going to be a great turn out!
Just a reminder that rally registration closes on May 9 so that we can place our t-shirt order for the rally.
If you are coming, but have not sent in your registration, do it TODAY or TOMORROW!
After that, we will not accept any orders for t-shirts. We order a few extra of the most common sizes for the rally. You can only get what is available.
Have you all made your hotel reservations? If not, do it NOW! If our blocked rooms are full at Laquinta Inn, you'll have to find other lodging.
See you all soon!

Water pump

Post by Lance McCaw »

Well I replaced my water pump seal and all the o-rings. I still have a slight leak. May order another seal and try that. No oil is dripinv on the floor cause it hits exhaust and burns. Should I even mess with it again. I thought about double sealing it. There is plenty of room for two seals. Opinions, thoughts ?

Gear oil leaking from the final drive will work its way forward on the drive shaft and leak out the boot onto the pipes. Just smell the oil you see, gear oil has a smell of its own.

After looking at my pictures during disassembling it could be the front bevel gear cover. which is the front end of the drive shaft.
