rick1962uk Posted April 27, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 quick update soaked the gasket inwater for a bit got it to fit put the bolts in to hold it in place will let it dry out for day or so and see what hapens might glue it in place with a bit of sealant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 You get them from the same place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lineaway Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 Yeah the 2002 cases were just a tad smaller. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnoux Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) Yes as Lineaway said, check you are using MT280344001 which is the case gasket from 2003 onwards (hence the 3 in the part number) Not MT280244001 which was the 2002 gasket. (almost the same, but not quite). MT280344001 fits 2003 to 2020 Edited April 28, 2020 by arnoux 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
