    Swivel Seals - Two types??

    Hi That's obviously what i would like as well, changing bit for bit ....but! Bit of a catch 22 unless someone has come across this before with the seals. I would rather prefer to have one of each type in hand to do the work (and either return unused for refund or credit), than end up in bits...

    Difference between normal, wide angle & double cardan props??

    Thanks Pat Did you notice any benefit to going to double cardon PS other than more obvious range of movement? I am not planning to do extreme offroad for some time, if at all with this one, so a wide angle PS would probably suffice unless Dbl Cs benifit in other ways in long term. Also don't...
