Just wondering if people would be interested in a "seal kit" for their steering boxes? i have a couple to rebuild so i could easily buy a few of each bit needed, it would be £15.70 plus postage, let me know what you think? It would include Drop arm dust seal 15 x 2 mm o ring 28 cm of 2 mm o ring (you would need to cut to length and superglue) Oil seal 22 x 32 x 7 R23 Oil seal 28 x 38 x 7 R23 275 ml of SAE 90 gear oil Fibre washer Dust seal with pointer £6 extra (new price 09/14) Postage is £3.20 So incl P&P £17.70 with out dust seal £23.70 with To service this type of box Hope VWH dont mind me borrowing there pic New drop arm seal Oil plug 75p
Top idea! I'd be interested, as I have a spare box. No chance of the caged ball-bearings as well (I forget what they look like, @fritt will know)?
Never being able to find a supplier, not that i would recommend it BUT they are housed in a plastic cage and its a piece of urine to pop them out and put new ones in The bearing part no is SFK3555 927, open cage ball race if anyone can find them
@snotty @matty @womball Postage would be £3.20 2nd class, so £15.70 payable on receipt if your still interested? PM me addresses if so
PM sent. Question: is the smaller O ring the one that seals the adjuster clamp nut? Haven't got a box in front of me...
Does anyone know if the earlier cast boxes use the same seals? How many boxes are there? 1 for the early and 1 for the late or more?
