Ha your right Wetsuits are made from neoprene.  Urethane should be ok or stay original???

Hi  has anyone used neoprene bushes in the front and rear springs, I'm thinking  of removing  the brass ones putting in neoprene and use the original pins "no need to grease" any thoughts?

Hi i just replaced both inner and outer seals and the pinnion seal on the diff got them from Then and Now Automotive about $180 includding post to Aussie and bought the bearing hear timkin $40 each,  be careful not to damage the shims when removing the inner bearing shell i used a 3 leg puller and had no problems oh and i used a speedy sleeve on the axel for the inner oil seal had a bit of wear on the axel good idea to use them with new style seals   Glenn

Hey you might be right Rusty,
Just pulled out the right side axel it had been snapped and rewelded a bit dodgy and still covered in weld spatter,you think they would have cleaned that off before refitting the axel, fingers crossed it hasn"t done any damage to the diff bearings.
Still carn"t budge the left rear hub need to get that off so i can drop the diff out.
I'll post a couple of pics when its out.

Oh 38c today and forcast for 40 for Friday thats just over 100 in your language, wish i had air conditioning!!!

Pinion seal and inner and outer axil seals are on there way, Time to remove the diff and the axils are there any retaining clips or pins that need to be removed first? or do the axils just pull out any info would good. Then of to the powder coater.
Is there a shop manuel or any info for 28/29 ply would be really handy
