    Toms was adjustable, but the update in Dan's is the ball which should stop the galling of the moving component and allow pressure adjustment

    Hard Top Side Window Buttons

    Kevin I had a bunch made.. large and small and the rubbers just before COVID. Bob who made them passed away .. but I still have them. I had taken orders for them but when the world shut down all went on the back burner and I couldn't access them. If people need them and the rubbers I have them

    Shift Boot

    Brent there should be a recess in the base of the boot that goes over the edge of the hole in the metal shift cover that secures it... Also there are 2 styles of boot...not sure if that makes a difference as to how they stay on or not...

    Diff oil

    As far as I'm aware no brass in the rear end... I know that there is in the trans.. same in the trans on the Tiger.. so have to be careful what oils you put in..

    Diff oil

    Don't use synthetic for sure... The diff takes a hypoid bevel oil iirc... There is an equivalent available for the factory spec... It's been a while since I did mine so can't recall off the top of my head.
