Bristol gearbox seal
« on: December 12, 2012, 17:13:04 »
Due to an unacceptable amount of leakage, I'm having the gearbox in BEX277 re-sealed.  I'm told that there is an upgrade kit to us a modern lip seal in place of the Archimedes screw type slinger but no one seems to know where to get it.  Does anyone have an answer?
