Re: [MBZ] Rabbit ears on the SL

The mast needs to connect to something inside the antenna motor assembly, but it should not require any work beyond getting the mast down in there far enough. Maybe you need to open it up and allow the mast to go down a little further by manipulating the plastic tail and the gear it engages?

Re: [MBZ] 722.3 trans

If you have any problems with slipping due to the inside seals, try 1/2 of a quart bottle of Lucas Transmission Fix. I put that much in the transmission I took out of an old 126 when I installed it in my TD march of 2013 about 6 years ago. I was told the 126 had been in the junk yard over 4

Re: [MBZ] 220SE on BaT

Very true. And remember that BaT has the setup with auction extension until a bid has rested for 2:00. That way there’s no sniping. Interesting that it’s Chip bidding. I do appreciate his interest - maybe he’s looking for a flip for his high end customers? It would be nice to sell it to

Re: [MBZ] 722.3 trans

Oops forgot to ask: Anyone have the P/N for the B2 kit and the k3 spring?  I assume those will have to come from a dealer. I think the banjo fittings to the oil cooler are 10mm, so I ordered 4 of 10x15x1 copper seals.   Is that right? I used to have the instructions for the k3 spring, but

Re: [MBZ] 722.3 trans

I found front / rear seals.  Anybody have part numbers for the shifter seal or the oring for the secondary pump on the side? Thanks The fluid seemed ok so I think reseal - install is the route to try.  I am concerned about 38 yr old orings inside, if there are any.

Nice Sprinter, Rick. Will the hydraulic lift gate be able to handle the weight of your presses? I would think those things weigh a great deal. Safe travels, and keep us posted on your progress. -D > On Aug 27, 2019, at 2:22 AM, Rick Hawkins Java Letterpress Cycles Photon via > Mercedes

I think you have your answer, clean and re-seal, install and operational test. We'll be looking forward to your full report! One of those threads recommended soda blasting to clean, it absorbs the oil and grease and falls off, but gentle on the transmission. -- Max Dillon Charleston SC On

We've been on a HDHP/HSA for several years now. It makes sense if you're younger, and relatively healthy. Also, societally I think it makes some sense, because it encourages you to do some shopping around and/or negotiating up front. Imagine if jobs all came with cars. Would we spend any time
