Re: Multi plate clutch service part
Joe, is there any way that I could buy this from you? Natick said he would hold it for me but you got there first😒. I’ve got a down car in need.

Re: 28 oil pan question?
The pump has a screen around it and the best thing about the clean out feature on the ‘28 is you can pull the pump and screen without dropping the entire pan. No it’s not hard at all to put the pump...

Re: At a lost here
Because of the dipper tray being so challenging to remove, it’s possible to have debris in the pan going unnoticed for a very long time. You may also check the condition of the rear labyrinth seal...

Re: Bendix Spring bolts
