Re: Babbit
Question? Why would the Babbitt be different between an open gear and a oil bath mill. Is it because the Babbitt on a open gear is more exposed to the weather ?

Re: Degreaser
I have a tub with diesel fuel and kerosene mixed and let the gear box sit in that for about a week.

Re: Aermotor D702 - 33’
Can you make new L bolts? Or use ruff cut lumber that's what I usually do.
