Hello All
Finally allowed back into the shed to start the spline lube and GPI replacement on the 86 K100
I have never done a spline lube on a k before and tried to educate myself as much as I could before starting
everything has gone really well until, checking the condition of the existing rear coupling spline ( not sure what the actual correct term is )
To me the coupling spline looks like there is a major flat spot before or after the peak not sure what way the coupling splines spins
