it wasn't really sitting in any water per say, just in a field. i am only guessing that water got into the leveler at some point in it's life. i think this is just a leaking/ been sitting for a while example. some of the grease was still there, but really caked onto the walls of the inside. the white stuff i am guessing is baking soda from when i got the frame done. still, it needed to be cleaned out.

although i am not really sure why Max charges 225 for a rebuild kit for this box, i am probably going to reuse the bearing etc after i get the good and clean and greased. the seals are all i really need and they are decently priced.

the oil seal i will try to find a match for at autozone on their wall of seals.

later,
