AXLES: Axles with brand new $100 bearings installed after I installed my third set of oil seals, this time correctly. Tape and Tap. I taped these on the inside so the little spring wouldn't pop off into the axle housing when I tapped them in. They are installed correctly now, so thank you for setting me straight on that.
CLUTCH: Started on clutch removal, but only as far as removing the speedometer cable and shift levers. My speedometer reads 10 mph short and the reason is those ambulance axles. So I will look for a replacement for my 1803 speedometer gear. The ratio due to axles appears to be 3.9 for the 1803 (current gear) and 4.7 for the 1803A. More as life unfolds.
