Default Re: Help! A few questions on an engine rebuild 78 Harley

I never never opened anything prior to the Columbia motors which were a little different seal-wise. Those ones use case gaskets. That said, I am pretty certain that gaskets weren't used on the earlier carts, just a thin layer of sealer as you mention.

I really can't help you with #2 from experience but I agree that it makes no sense whatsoever to have bearing on the outside of a seal.

Someone else may chime is but if you call vintagegolfcartparts.com I am sure that they can tell you for sure. They get a lot of referrals from this forum and they would be glas to offer some advice.
