thanks guys :wink:

but with that karcraft online catalogue I find it a POS to use :evil:

even with your post it is hard to get it to work unless you put in part number :?

I wish they would make it online ordering so I could do it in my owntime(night time)

also can you get the kit I mentiond earlier in oz because I want somthing better as I have seen the seals leak after new ones have been installed

In regards to the selector rod what do you use to get the pin out so the rod can be removed?
Im using a punch but the f$^^k in pin will not move.

First put it into reverse.
You only need the front pin out.
Use a 3/16" pin punch (NOT a nail or whatever) and a BFH. :wink:

Thanks Doc i will try putting it in reverse first
By the way the rod looks like its been cut and rewelded looks like the prevoius owner or mechanic had tried the punching the pin before and was unsucessful :lol:
Now finding the room between the stands and box to swing that BFH is gonna be fun :D

That's why U put it in reverse, you can get a clean hit then.

I use the Rod Change repair kit - it has the seal, alloy rod centralising insert, o ring for afore-mentioned insert and a consatina rubber cover that goes over the whole shebang. Costs $14 bucks and havent had a leak in 50,000km...

I will hunt around for a number for you...

Hooroo
