Final drive gasket info NQ 50

Post by trailboss »

Does anyone have a source for this gasket, if not I will make an image file from a scanned image of the housing. I make a lot of gaskets using this method.
Take the part, highlight the gasket surface with red sharpie, place on celophane or wax paper on scanner bed, scan, export file to paint or photo shop, clean up and print. Then take the printout and spray some tack spray on new gasket material sticking the two together, then cut/punch out.
I often combine this method with the ball peen hammer method, punching out the bolt holes first, laying the gasket on the part, installing bolts for alignment, then gently peen around with the hammer, makes fast accurate gaskets.
