my gearbox has been sat out in the weather for a year and half under a tarp, what should i do before i put it back in?? just change the oil and not much more? its manual also
You'll get away with it, but with the first few heat cycles your seals may die in the arse. With the gear sets and bearings sitting high and dry for that amount of time, you'll have surface rust on contact surfaces, this will come off and hopefully the case hardened surface will be ok. I recommend another oil change a week after you get it going.
if it last a few months ill be happy ill be upgrading to a r33 box anyway as for seals should i just try my luck or replace them? if i run the risk of spewing oil over the engine bay and floor pan ill defently replace them. cant get oil over my fresh paint and clean motor what would i be looking at for a kit? just a ruff idea if anyone knows
