I see the wear ring is in its own bag.  Thats a first for me. 

Im sorry, but I have to ask.... isnt there 2 rear seal part numbers? One for the seal alone, and a different seal for use of the wear ring? I know you have been working hard on this and have gotten info from many directions, and a parts counter that doesnt know what you have, I recall 2 different seals due to the thickness of the wear ring.  

Trying to not be a pest here... Jojo

any chance they will give you the correct seal for free?

😆. I got my money back for the wrong seal, so can't complain much.  I'll have an extra wear ring but whatever.  

I've blown so much money on this project I don't want to know ....

Larry don't feel bad I have been known to piss money away I restored a 1934 vld Harley Davidson the paint job and chrome and nickel was about $5,000 back fifteen years ago and the 65 Vellosette Truxton was an absolutely killer for money spent on parts I built a 1940 80 inch flathead Harley and the money involved was significant. The 32 Ford hot rod pickup was somewhat inexpensive a can of JD flat black paint for the paint job a $ 400.00 1969 mustang 302 and c-4 trans and a cheap 9 inch Ford one legger rear out of a bronco I got for $100.00

I could retire early on the money I have burned up between the race car, the black car and now the Mack in the last 6-8 yrs.  Wow...I don't like to thing about it.

But, it's my passion so I just do it.
