Re: Another indicator malfunction

Hi Thanks bmcecosse for your suggestions. When I did the last set of tests I compared the two front indicator units and discovered that the right one had an earth wire which the LH was lacking. This is strange as the LH indicator has worked in the past without a separate earth wire, I suppose earthi...

Re: Another indicator malfunction

Hi, thanks for replying so quickly. With the small lights on the rear flasher is normal, but front flasher is very weak and hardly visible, the warning light on the stalk does not light at all.

Thanks

Re: Rear Hub Oil seal removal

Hi, thanks for replying, I think I needed to seat the bearing rather than tap the hub back on as it appears to naturally go further along the axle tube and push the bearing back off if tapped to far

Re: Rear Hub Oil seal removal

Hi all, have sorted it, I didnt understand that the metal ring was part of the seal as the rubber had deteriorated, the metal seemed to be part of the hub, fairly easy to get the metal ring out when i understood it was seperate. But now when I refit the hub it is pushing the bearing out of the hub. ...

Rear Hub Oil seal removal

Hi

I am overhasuling a rear hub and wanted to replace the oil seal. I have removed the rubber but this has left the metal ring outer part of the seal in situ which I cannot seem to remove. Any thoughts on removing it would be appreciated.

Thanks

Re: Fitting New Rear Bearings

Hi, thanks for your reply, sorry the bearing is being pushed out when I tap back the hub by about 3-4mm.It doesnt seem to want to go back. The half shaft cannot be fitted. As far as i understand the 6207 is the bearing for the rear wheel and yes the 2RS has two seals. Thanks

Fitting New Rear Bearings

Hi, am fitting new rear bearings to 1964 Traveller, using sealed bearings RHP 6207 2RS made by Zen but when tapping hubs back they are pushing the seals back out. Should the hubs be fully knocked back or can I leave a space to tap the bearings flat, or are these seals not correct ? Thanks
