Best way to prep new tcase gears?
« on: Apr 17, 2023, 09:49:17 PM »
New gears have almost like a dried oil residue on them, yellow/orange-ish... Just hit em with some brake cleaner and a rag? Wire/nylon brush? Just leave it as is?

Clean it off with brake clean.
Even the most primitive society, has an intimate respect for the insane.
