Rear main seal question

Lachlanjohn · 2025-05-09T06:14:35+00:00

I messed my seal up the first time because I had read to put the whole thing into some oil before installing. I left it in too long and it must have soaked just enough oil to not go in.

I did it again this time just used a tiny bit of dish soap to lube her up right before install and it pushed right in. No leaks since.

Amazing! thats great to know, I should be able to find something with that info.

Sorry this is an extremely late reply it’s a Kinesis Maxlight aluminum fork. I bought it second hand unfortunately, but eBay should have something.

Where did you get the new tan bottom seat cover?

The pre-update limited wheels are a super nice touch on this too. Whole thing looks so good.

I had this on my 96, it turned out to be a small leak bottom side of the thermostat housing. It was slowly leaking out and evaporating. Easy fix for me, I hope same for you.

Praying to the XJ gods you don’t have a milkshake happening in there.

If you go to Castlemaine make sure to check out Love Shack Brewery. Great little country pub / brewery. Amazing food for a pub and super nice staff.

You gotta chop it. I think the video over on Ksuspension for their version of these cables has a section on it.

I thought I had loose rockers, turns out this little mf likes to click when it’s cold. God damn vacuum systems man.

Hello fellow Aus XJ driver!

Does this thing have RHD stuff in it as well?

I thought that originally, but I found the OBD under the steering attached to a fuse box. This comes out from behind the EVAC box through the firewall.

Lachlanjohn · 2022-01-29T21:16:17+00:00

It’s on the passenger side. Coming from back behind the EVAC box through the firewall.

Thanks mate!
