Driveshaft packing.

[skiman_61]

Say guys, any tips on repacking the driveshaft on my 1987 Saltare? Do's, don'ts check this while you're at it?

Also, I'm getting a noise that sounds a little like a bell ringing at very low RMP when in gear.

Thanks as always,

Jack

There is a nice write-up here: http://www.pbase.com/mainecruising/stuffing_box.
You might consider switching to Goretex. I've been happy with that so far. Skidim has the wax string and Goretex string.
