I finally got to work on the MF1450 again today! Had way too many distractions this week!
I remembered a post Rick had put up a while back where he painted something with Rustoleum hammered grey. I had a can so that's what the driveshaft tunnel cover got painted today.
Still have to put the bead on it.
Then before I bolt the cover on I pulled the driveshaft.
Drilled and tapped in a couple of zirks. I don't think balance is a big issue but I put them opposite of each other anyway.
Cleaned the inside, put a thin layer of silicone on the flanges and bolted it back in. Yeah that whole tube will fill up with grease but can't hurt much of anything. Didn't take thew time to build some kind of plugs.
Maybe tomorrow it can go outside!
