[QUOTE="craig, post: 102498, member: 1959"] In fitting an electric starter to an early Rapide, I also decided to look over the clutch and primary drive...and good thing as I found what looked to be small amount of oily items at PD20, PD22, clutch basket C1, seal C18, C20 nut, etc. Not any great amount, nothing appears on friction shoes, but damp. I am replacing, or planning on replacing PD25 clutch sprocket seal and in the midst of this job, I am looking over all the other leakable pieces in the clutch train as well. My questions are, as I have gone dumb on this - Can I knock out the PD24 bush by munching up the existing PD25 seal? I am guessing the answers is yes. Would it be best to order/replace PD24? rather than clean it up after removal? probably a good thing Most important, once the PD25 seal is installed with PD 24 installed and the primary pieces go back into place, [U]what tool or fixture [/U]is used to keep the PD20 sprocket centered , so as to take the deformation off the new PD25 seal?
