    Cone CLE ???

    Got a bud that has a mirage, stv, 2 allisons, cc comp bullet, and a 20' bullet. He has lots of merc parts. He was cleaning out his storage and found a coned cle case that he forgot he had. He says it's been sitting in storage for about 2 years. I'm buying it from him cause it's a small shaft and he runs fat shaft. I know i will need to change the water pump and gear oil, is there anything else i need to check or change?

    Drain the oil, press and vac test. refill and water pump kit, change the oil after 2hrs and see how it looks.
