I have yet to pull the seal on the bearing I left it in a ziplock bag overnight to see if any oil leaks out for my non scientific seal test. Bearing feels like it still has grease in it no play and turns smooth. I took some video of the bearing pull and have a good clip were you can hear the clip pop to release the bearing while it's just sitting there without being touched. I ran out of space on my SD card before the bearing was pulled all the way out. I wanted to record the oil or in this case no oil coming out of the IMS tube. I'll take a picture of the bearing in the bag tonight and record video removing the seal to see what I have.
I like my craft and micro brews
Trying to figure out how to start making a wall display in the garage so they aren't all over my work space.
Froze the new bearing for a few hours and that's now in with the new flange. I did not add to the sealant on the micro-encapsulated bolts. I have no oil leaks to start so I figured the factory thread locker was enough.
New Bearing in place with spiro-loc. Spiro-loc was tricky to get in carefully but did go in after fussing with it for 5 minutes.
New flange had fit this was the last picture last night as I decided on what flange sealants and Loctite to use which I didn't have on hand. I do stick with recommended thread-lock numbers since there are so many choices out there I don't like to mess around and just get the right stuff.
