Today I started cleaning things up and some other perfunctory chores. But while I was at it I decided to add zerk fittings to both ends of the shifting shaft on the clutch housing. Why? There are no plugs or seals on the shaft ends. And no bushings. So grease is really the only thing to seal out water and such. And with no grease fitting no grease!
I had purchased a gasket and seal kit from Pierce. It was $25 and I need seal any way so why not get the gaskets. Well, the transfer gasket holes did not line up on my case. Not sure if the pierce transfer is different or it is just poorly stamped. At any rate I had to pound out a gasket. I use the side of a ball-peen and razor. Also, a good tip my dad and I use to clean up the holes in your gasket is to keep different size expended casings from your firearms. .22, 30-30 ect. You can pound a clean hole using the brass shells. I always hated a messy edge from just shoving the bolt through the gasket paper.
Added grease fittings.
Pierce transfer gasket holes do not line up, so don't count on that one.
