Turret Traverse Gearbox Stripped and Rebuilt

The Turret Traverse Gearbox was found to be seized solid !  So It was stripped down, all components checked and cleaned up...

There were no major issues...  some water had got inside (over the years) and the grease had gone hard.  After re-packing with grease it all worked fine... a coat of paint and its as good as new again.

Before - seized solid


Major Components

Drive to the Turret Ring Gear
 

 

After - Good as New !
