Oil Pump, Winch Cable & Free Wheel Hubs
July - December 2013
In July I needed to change my Oil Pump because mine didn't have the drive spur for the Rev-Counter Generator that ran the Rev-Counter. I tried to get just a new shaft but they were no longer available so I ended up putting in a new pump.
This is my old Pump without the Drive Spur
This is what the Oil Pump Drive-Shaft looks like with the Drive Spur on the top
After removing the Sump I needed to remove the old hard gasket so found using a wire brush on the drill worked really well

The Sump cleaned and painted
New Winch Cable
Having a Thimble put on one end of the new cable
Heat cutting and sealing the other end
Starting to wind on the new 12mm steel cable after I'd painted the drum with Brantho-Korrux
I used my drill to wind on the 70 meters of cable
Free Wheel Hubs
Bought AVM Free Wheel Hubs that will disconnect the front drive shaft and axle from the front wheel when Im out of four wheel drive. This will increase the fuel economy and lighten the steering.
Once I had removed the old axle flange I cleaned the axle hub flange surface then put on the gasket and new flange body.
Flange is bolted on and Ive just started to screw the axle lock nut into the flange body
Once mounted I painted them black then painted the red inlays
