Thanks - I'll get both ordered

What is the best sealant to use for the hat bits ?

A light smear of Honda Bond on the pucks. Daunting I know but, why don't you do the work yourself?. Its a way of learning and there are all the resources you need on the forum in the way of advice and encouragement

All you need to do the job is a 3/8 drive socket set with 6 sided sockets and the manual downloadable from Alladins cave. Its the 500 manual with supplements for the differences on 550, for what you are doing no differences
