just some very helpful advice, if your going to redo all seals, bearings, chains, it is soooo much easier to just split the shell and remove the top, it saves alot on the bending and crazy reaching positions to change the front axles, bearings and chains.... especially on older machines, because those front axles are almost always rusted together and very hard to remove... you can reseal the body with weather stripping from home depot or lowes, i personally buy all my bearings, chains and cork from tractor supply, they even have the inner bearing housings, and check all of yr aluminum bearing housings for cracks... you can also make an oil changer from an old external fuel pump, some rubber tubing and a piece of 3/16 break line, you just suck the old oil out from the fill tube...no mess and no draining into the tub...
So we are looking at $100ish per axle (8 axles) plus time
Yea likelyish here in Kanada where these things are built we probably get hosed more than on the US side that's the way it is in the true north strong and free (get out the knee pads) and silvrbcks advice is for those of us that are well seasoned and arthritic(ME) its good stretching exercise and a test of patients at best but very doable with the top in place but as he stated the front axles are a challenge i have a alternator kit on my Avenger that needs the belt adjusted and I dread the job.LOL NCT
