Got to play a little with the new cases. It is very nice to not have to work so hard. Just let it go, nice and slow and controlled.
Now if I can just get the doubler box to quit leaking. I used some brush on permatex gasket maker, under the recommendation of someone. It obviously was the incorrect stuff to use as every joint is leaking. I pulled the box and regasketed with Ultra Grey RTV. Letting it cure for 24 hours. Then will see if I got it sealed well. I did find out, others may already know, Permatex “Right Stuff” can be used immediately. No cure time. Thinking that may be my new RTV of choice.
The 300 isn’t leaking, yet. Lol. The doubler box didn’t like my original choice of sealant. The flip kit I used moves the shift rods to the top so the seals are not below the fluid line. All old unused holes are taped and pipe plugs installed. So far the 300 has not been the issue. The NWF eco box and my transmission output have been the leaks. Think I have them solved, I hope.From all the threads I remember reading before this was always one of the complaints about doing the flip on the D300.
Hope you get it to stop leaking and can just get out and enjoy it.
Ya I have no idea why it has been such a pain. Pretty simple assembly. I blame the brush on thin gasket maker. LolOK well that is good news. Hope the new sealing works and you can enjoy all your work.
Looks wonderful! Allergic to cake!? Man what a sucky existenceIt is a nice hole. Not real deep but it works. Water isn’t as cold as usual this year. But we spent most of the day in the water. Was a nice break from the heat and stress.
I was hoping to countersink the mounting bolts. However the slotted holes are far to large. They measure close to 1”x3/4”. That’s crazy big. Not sure which way to go on fasteners yet.
