I agree, a little gear oil drip on a parade vehicle won't be an issue. The curved metal strap that is riveted to the axle must have some side to side force as I think it help keeps the axle centered. Unless the rivets are tight I don't think rtv would stay in place. Welding the perimeter of the strap might be a solution.
Thanks,
Kent | | |
