The photo below shows the
disassembled shaft complete with leather seal. I am cleaning the parts in
preparation for painting. Vech mentioned an upgrade
from the leather seal. I am going to call him and find out the detail.
The photo's below show the rear driveshaft
cover with the grime removed and sandblasted. There are some part numbers cast
into the cover
I sandblasted
the parts and painted them flat black. Things look much nicer now
6 June 2003 - I spoke with Vech at Bench Mark Works, they have a modern seal upgrade
for the leather oil seal on the drive shaft. With the upgrade you do not need
the oil splash shield or the outer cover that the four screws secure to the
rear driveshaft housing. However, you can still use the cover so it is
cosmetically correct. I have ordered the seal upgrade and will post photo's of the installation.
