( formerly the Rod change oil retention prevention system* thread)

I know you can get a kit to stop this badboy from leaking, but what is the name of the metal part in the picture?



I suspect this (and the pin) needs a replacement too.

Cheers

Oh and hi..

Wrong Cush! You can buy a kit to slow that thing's leak. You cannot buy a kit to "stop" that thing from leaking.

You should put your heart & soul into everything you do.

How might they work? Where to they fit..?

What's it meant to look like?

Personally i think Matt's seal is much better then that ebay one. Just knock it in first and then a plain old oil seal and it shouldn't leak again.

You crazy Matthews must stick together...

I'm assuming Matt (Read) your bit replaces the metal part of the above kit?

I got a couple of these off Matt about 6 or 7 years ago, still going strong.
You need to use an ordinary seal too. The hard part is getting all the old ones out.
