Peter, that is one reason the rear is with person "B" now, I want him to verify the work done by person "A".

Installation of Slip Joint (35-6) per the manual reads:

6. Coat keyway on slip joint about 10 mm with Omnifit Type 80 red M or Loctite "Typ Keilbefestigung 42"
7. Mount slip joint. For tightening torque refer to Job No. 35-0.
Note: As a further safeguard the clamping screw may also be bonded.

Maybe the tool is for the idiots who followed the manual.


Sorry for tasking your memory, hopefully some good things surfaced while you were remembering.
