Gearbox Repair - 8x8 Amphibious Vehicle Argo REBUILD Ep.3

Steel rims and frame get sandblasted and powder coated, the planetary differential brake steering gearbox parts get cleaned in parts washer, a couple of gears get replaced with new gears, new bearings and circlips installed. The planetary differential gets assembled and worn out reverse idler gear oilite bushing replaced with homemade brass bushing. The project came to a halt with a damaged bearing hole in the aluminum gearbox case. I have to figure out how to repair it so I can finish the gearbox assembly.
