Tried again on the new gaiter, sprayed  the inside liberally with chain lub. and managed to pull the chain through using a thick string.  It was pretty tight but eased up as I worked the chain in and out with more chain lub.  

It would be a real fun job trying to do this on the bike.  

Can see now why there is the comment in the Silk manual, Section E 3.2  ""Ensure final drive chain is kept well lubricated while rubber "gaiters" are wearing themselves in."
