I did search the archives and found comments about the breather vent, so I will clean this also.

Otherwise things are progressing, ordered the little torque wrench and got a tool to get the inner wheel bearing seals out of the axle tubes. They are pretty stuck there.

The right axle half is sand blasted, next is to fix a small rust hole in the shock mounting bracket. I'll insert a small piece of steel into the hole and weld it. It can be done so it is not possible to see afterwards.

My new pinion seal has the contact surface further back than the old one, this is great, since cleaning revealed some wear.

Well slowly getting there, looking forward to mount everything by now
