No Mo Nuvite - the tub has temporarily run dry



 



The Chevron seals for the oleo
These ar NOT approved parts and are shown here for demonstration purposes only
I have found someone who has some original Luscombe seals still in the package that he is going to send to me
My search for an existing supply of approved seals is still ongoing



Hey, they fit perfectly! Too bad they aren't approved parts d;-(



Ya just poke em' in there, nothin' to it



Then lightly screw on the retainer ring



The white stuff is Lubriplate - trusty litium based grease that I've used for years
It'll help me get this stuff onto the piston



See, I told you



Next step is to install the housing



Soon, very soon



Last week Dan told me I was getting a bit carried away with the "Jim's Gymn" thing



I know Dan, I need guidance
I'm gonna make that call first thing Monday morning
