Just got my Westy back today after having the push rod tube seals replaced
and now no leaking (so far).  However, things aren't perfect.  I had the guy
adjust the hand brake because when I had the van inspected several weeks ago
the inspector  didn't readjust the brakes when putting it all back together.
Well, this guy had to replace the star adjusters and OVER TIGHTENED the rear
brakes.  Now the hand brake won't move to the first click.  Fortunately, the
wheels turn without smoking the rear brakes.  Tomorrow I will fix it.
However, no leaking push rod tubes (so far).
