1772 Restoration Project
 
So it begins.....

My son (14) stripped out his second drive shaft coupler this weekend. Along with some other issues and not to mention a pandemic he decided it was a good time to restore his baby.

He is going to need some help along the way, so thanks in advance. You guys rock! Here is wishing him luck and enjoyment. A journey of a thousand miles starts with the first bolt.

ATA boy. Have patience, take your time, research the issues giving you pause, and fix the issue correctly, will take you a long way to a successful completion.

Time spent working/learning with kids is time well spent, they always turn out better.:beerchug:

Hey guys,
I've been working on painting my 1772. I was trying to put new axle seals on and replace the axle housing that has a chip in it. I am having trouble getting them off. I've seen that some people can just pull the whole thing off but mine won't budge.

thx everyone for the help.

You need to remove the rear cover and take the clips off the ends of the axles in the differential, then the axles and tubes will slide off.

I call them E-Clips/C-Clips not sure if that's their technical name?
It's part #8 that you need to pull out, then the axles will slide right out.

This link will show you the break down of the axles. https://www.partstree.com/models/177...le-carrier-46/

I strongly suggest that you download the service manual and read it.

While you are in there so far, you may want to go in and drill some drain holes like Sam had suggested in the past to make sure nothing gets trapped in the axle tubes in the future.

Good evening,
I've been trying to get this gear to move to be able to get the c clips off to remove axels it seems to be hitting something not sure what's going on and the service manual diagram hasn't been much help. Any suggestions are welcome.

Thanks,
Ben

Just an update I feel stupid but didn't realize I just had to put some elbow grease into it and got the gear to move. I also thought id update you guys I've been trying to get everything painted. I've got the frame and rims and a few small parts ready.
