And another thing...
Got back to the Staghound after a few months of working on other projects, of which I have too many. Also did Corowa and found a few more bits for the rebuild.
The front diff is also in good condition, one lower trunnion bearing and cup has major pitting and needs to be replaced.
The outer end seal or wiper seal has gone beyond hard rubber, more like soft stone. I think I may have trouble finding a replacement.
Again the brake hubs and shoes are in excellent nick.
Also had a play with the engine oil cooler. I intend to make one good one out of the two I have. These are cast metal and bloody heavy, like everything else on the Staghound.
