Final Drive Cover Gasket
Final Drive Cover Gasket – There are two
styles of this gasket. One is double layered as shown in the
picture. Note the vent passage is only present on one layer.
This is the gasket to use with a sheet metal final drive. The
other style is only single layered but somewhat thicker. This is
fine for an aluminum final drive cover.
As recommended below I use Aviation
Form-A-Gasket. Once the cover is installed I blow a couple of
puffs of high pressure air through the fill hole until I can hear air
coming out of the vent. Careful not to blow the seals out side of
the final drive.
To ensure a good seal, coat the gasket with
Permatex Aviation FORM-A-GASKET Item 80019.
Cost $11.75 Plus Shipping.
