Hi

Regarding the lapping of the rear half shaft taper.  Be very gentle as too much can draw in the differential gear on the end with very noisy and expensive consequences!

I’ve used Loctite 660 taper seal with some success. It’s a kind of quick metal that fills gouges etc in the taper.  It doesn’t glue the taper in and I’ve separated a half shaft taper without drama after using it.

Good luck with the refurb. It will keep you busy for a while!

Cheers

Howard
