Hi All
I'm rebuilding the back axle of my 1930 RK. It has a screw in torque tube and has inherited one narrow half shaft and one wider shaft. That is the diff carrier has been reamed on one side to take a later half shaft! I am using lip seals in the axle cases and hubs.
The existing adjusters on either side of the diff carrier do not have the oil thrower screw thread. However I do have a pair of later adjusters from a Ruby axle that seem to fit.
Question is it worth fitting these in place of the original adjusters? Does the screw thread help much?
Cheers
Howard
