Hi,here is a cure if you have the laydown box: You need one 28mmx2mm O ring,one 28mmx2,5mm and two 20mmx1mm.Take out the outer cover,kickstart shaft and put one of the 28mm rings against the shoulder of the shaft.Check the end float so use the best of them.Fit the two 20mm ringsat the two machined rails at the axle.Grease it and put together and I think it is leakfree. Good luck!
