Clutch rod oil seals on eBay until Oct 9, '09

Post by e3steve » Fri Sep 25, 2009 11:26 am

Shouldn't really be too difficult to obtain from a hydraulics shop or bearing supplier, but just in case any of my Hondabuddies are having difficulty in finding them, they're here:

Before replacing, don't omit inspecting the pushrod; if it's grooved from wear where the lip seal seals (or doesn't, as the case may be!) then the rod will need replacing, as it will still leak even with a new seal. An alternative, in this case, would be to obtain a 7x21x6 seal and then have the last 25mm or so of the rod turned down by an expert machinist with a lathe; but get the seal in that size first -- and the rod is very hard!

Edited to correct a minor grammatical error.
