@Davyboy888 Here you go mate. The red section is where the seal sits and the bit below the blue section is the line I’m talking about. I normally fit them so the seal is around the same height as the line, but not below. Slightly protruding is also fine.
HTH 👍🏻
There’s a line about 8mm into the casing where the seal sits - level it to that. If you’re not sure, I’ll take a pic and highlight where I’m talking about mate 👍🏻
Put some oil on the lip of the seal to help it over the shaft. Get a socket that’s a similar size to the seal and tap it home. Not got a socket? Get some rolls of electrical tape (needs to be black - not red or multicoloured) and use that to tap the seal home square.
Right the good news is you can extend your search to a 130 box as you only need the upper half of the casing mate. It’s down to the bearing setup. It would be hit and miss as to if you’d get another 129 with that bearing setup, as Renault changed them part way through their build.
That...
I’m afraid not mate. There’s 2x different bearing setups. Post a picture of the 5th gear end without the gears on and I’ll tell you which box to look for. 👍🏻
That looks like it’s off the 5th gear selector fork mate. It acts like a locating dowel when it’s in gear, but I’m not sure what would’ve caused that to break off. Other than it’s french and just decided to throw the towel in 😂
Yeah sorry mate I keep the parts in stock for boxes I’m building. I...
Lol fukcing typical eh! Could you hear me then? A lot of the other lads I play online with are cross platform too and I can hear them no problem. 🤷🏻♂️
@Daz... do you have a mic? I couldn’t hear you last night at all?
Sorry I left and went into the other group. They’d been badgering me all night and I was taking some abuse in the WhatsApp group 😂
Send me a picture of the batch number on your diff mate - you may need to send it back as they’ve had a few issues with certain batch numbers.
I’ve had to send one back to them for a box I’m currently rebuilding for someone. 🤦🏻♂️
