Here's a video I made with Paul D explaining the DisPro device innards.

I hope this will help you figure out your design.

Miro I see in the video that there is a seal inside the bolt of the rock shaft. (not sure of the correct term) The video uses the Astridge restraint, but is there a seal also in the ratchet type of restraint? |

The ratchet came first and leaked in spite of everything the guys in the DisPro company could think of. With the leaks came corrosion and ultimately failure and seize up. That was especially bad if you hit a log or a rock
The Astridge arrangement solved that issue and was used thereafter.
