Last job of the day was to inspect the shafts. All dirty and greasy, so what was I to do? So I tore them apart.

In December 2017 I worked on the parts of the drivetrain and some other parts, lik the camshaft sprocket. My adjustible new one has a different size hearth. So took measures and fabricated something.

I ordered a bunch new parts for the steering. New trailarms, new rubbers and stuff like that.

Image

The rack itselve was clean but showed signs of leakage.

Image

So I took it to Hydroline Trade in Veenendaal, Netherlands. Rini overhauled the rack.
