    Default Waterproof pushrod seal.

    I didn't have very much footprint next to the strut on this hydro + I didn't have a pushrod boot on me, I would have to order one, so I made up this little contraption. two brass tubes with a piece of silicone joining them, the tubes get sealed with pieces of shrink wrap, and the whole unit gets filled with white lithium grease, completely waterproof.
