CV Boots

Nothing ever goes easy on old cars and these cv boots were not easy.

As soon as the first one came off the bits started falling off.





New short shaft finally arrived
Slotted nicely into the gearbox, i love new stuff

Sump Gasket

Noticed a little shiny moisture above the gasket line so it was decided it should be done.

So pulled the sump off and had a very strange surprise waiting for me. Strange things hanging out of the oil pick-up.
This was what was pulled out of it. Good to see it doing its job.

So lets pre the sump because it looks a little nasty.
That just wouldn't do, so out with the wire brush again....
Much better!
Time for block cleaning.
 
 All back together
Then finiehed of with a little satin black to finish the job.
