DIFF SEAL REPLACEMENT
Posted: Wed Apr 11, 2018 3:35 pm
Hello dear friends,
as my Elan+2 is now completely in pieces, everything is now easily accessible. Even the diff !
It is black of grease and i would expect i will have to change seals. I verified the slack and the only one i could notice is the free millimeter from one side when i rotate the other one...
I try to figure out how difficult is to change these 3 seals (In and out), but :
- the Elan+2 workshop is not really didactic
- I did not find any DIY is the web
- Nor in the beloved LotusElan.net
Is anybody would make me the great favor to explain how to do that, or where to find a DIY manual ?
I'm patient, i have some tools and some time, but never did anything on a gearbox nor to a diff...
thanks for your help
