Good news. But don't break the speed limit in your C8 during the test drive ![]() Us MCC owners have to stick together, we are few and far between in this far flung outpost ![]() The old leather pinion seal on the CS8 rear axle is worn out and the 2" yoke had a deep groove worn in it . I decided to machine the yoke down to 50mm . I can buy a new 50mm pinion seal with a 70mm OD, this is close enough in size to the 2 3/4" original OD of the old seal . I also had a win on EPAY and scored 4 new tie rod ends and some new front spring bolts and bushes for a cheap price, these are DUFOR brand made in NSW .The CS8 surprisingly has rather small diameter sized front spring pins, same dimensions as the Morris J2 van actually . The tie rod ends also fit a "Hillman Wizard" whatever that is ! and other vehicles from mid 1930's to early 50's including a MG .
