I am working my way up from the ground before starting cosmetic refresh on the ferret.
whilst looking at the wheel stations, I noticed a large O ring appears to have snapped on the outer bevel box, and there is not one at all on the left front ( both rears are intact).
i think this is item 38 in v622, at the end of paragraph 140?
"outside the flange of the locking ring a o-section ring (38) sealing the inner tracta housing is fitted."
this is a big ring, maybe 5 or 6 inches in diameter and 1/8 inch in cross-section.
can I just take it off, clean it up and superglue the ends together in situ before easing back into place, with the glued section uppermost?
I could also get some more rubber of the same cross-section and make one for the left wheel?
or can new ones be sourced and fitted without taking the drums etc off?
thanks,
mick
