Rear axle Rebuild




After completely stripping down the rear axle, Tara and I primered and painted the axle yesterday. Also cleaned and prepped the gas tank and tank cover. Found out the tank has a 255lph fuel pump in it. That was a nice surprise.
Also rebuilt the tractionlok with new carbon fiber clutch disks from a 2003 Cobra. A friend from church helped get the carrier bearings removed and new ones pressed on. Next on the list will be to top coat the axle and re-assemble. Also work on prepping and installing the gas tank.
