Re: "critical" lead level in transmission fluid for boat under contract

Thrust bearings and if I remember correctly that's a steel casing. The case borings might be sleeved with plain bearings.

Some of those gearboxes were equipped with optional oil coolers but usually when they are in continuous or workboat duty. But if it has an oil cooler then that could be a source of lead as well.

I agree with Compass, lead is used in sleeve and thrust bearings and I bet that V-drive transmission has quite a few of both. Silicon is also used in bronze bearings but I'm confused why you didn't...
