<p>Mack, the restored rear looks great! Please share the part numbers. It'll help us all. BTW, I assume those are disc brake brackets on the flange. What set up are you running?</p>

<p>Wow. You hv the whole thing out. Yes please do send me any part numbers you have. I figure the othe one will hv to be done at some point. So far, it seems the gaskets were culprit as it hasnt started leaking again</p>
<p>Thanks</p>
