Well I've been cleaning up a few little things running around in sweatpants and suspenders. But now it is time to address this.

Was hoping not to go to far in, but bearings are not too expensive. Gears look good, just flat spots on the races. Got to love locking hubs and deferred maintenance, remember to spin those front gears people.

Looks good. Just remember, the carrier bearings are unobtanium! Only still available in Colombia from old stock. I need to update the post with what my solution was, using similar bearings.

Well yesterday was a good day.
Started off by giving the cat his first bath :shock:

Then went to the gem club and slabbed up a bunch of jadite. Cleaning the saw got me ready for my next chore.

Since these came in

decided to knock out the long side seal. With that comes cleaning 48 years of grease out of the axle tube :shock: yeah, another roll of shop towels :lol:
After 8 hours of mineral oil, grease, and cleaning solvents it was dinner time.
Today it started raining way earlier then they said it would, so I'm hiding out, well except for going out in the pouring rain to clean a downspout out.
