Is there a preferred gasket sealant for this?


Martin does some in the BJ shop. Cant remember the name but I have used it ob my hubs. Its red in colour, might be Loctite?

Or if you're feeling cheap & have half a tube of bathroom sealant laying around use that, more or less the same stuff

Yes should just need to stop water getting. But the BJ stuff has anti corrosion properties as well. Worth just spending a fiver for proper stuff.
