Pezza Posted February 12, 2020 Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 Hi I'm doing the clutch on the TR6, I have a leak coming from the rear of the Overdrive where the prop shaft flange goes in to the Unit Can I remove the nut and take the Flange off and just replace the seal or is there a pre load on this nut. Also if not and I can does anyone know the Torque setting? Thanks Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted February 12, 2020 Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 (edited) You can replace the seal with the GB insitu. I'm sure the nut has a torque loading as I had to buy a new socket for the torque wrench a couple of years ago. Here it is 80 -120 lbs/ft Roger Edited February 12, 2020 by RogerH Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rcreweread Posted February 12, 2020 Report Share Posted February 12, 2020 Just bear in mind why the seal has started to leak in the first place - if it's because the output flange seal surface is defective, then there is not much point putting in a new seal without changing the output flange or fitting a speedisleeve to it. Also you could get a bit of an oil bath when you remove the flange if you haven't drained the unit. Cheers Rich Quote Link to post Share on other sites
