Tranny side crank seal

[Jre720]

Just wondering if this right here is the crank seal on this side or if it's behind a different gear also how do I get this snappped bolt out of the basket ? The seal seems to be metal ? Not really sure

Just wondering if this right here is the crank seal

That would be the all mighty crank seal.

As for the bolt, use a tap and die set. Maybe $30 at lowes or Home Depot.

Is it a clean snap? Or is the stripped?

It is a clean snap...and as for the crank seal, the one that is in there has a metal spring type thing around it..and the one I got is a oem yamaha seal and it doesn't have that on it ? A little weird

 

[blasterboy91]

It's fine. It might just be an aftermarket seal in it right now. Was it leaking? Or are you just looking to do a little TLC?

 

[Jre720]

Deffinatly leaking because I was burning a ton of gear oil, good to know it's nothing to worry about now that I have a second opionion I'll take it out tomorow...as for the basket should I drill it out and then re tap?

I'm pretty sure the hole goes all the way thru. You should be able to drill it from the back side and if you're lucky, the drill will catch and drive the bolt out.

 

[Jre720]

Yes the hole goes all the way thru , as well I was hoping to drill it out and luckily not strip the threads I will try that a little later today car started acting funnny so that's a first priority

So this is the seal that came out and this is the seal I'm going to be putting in...kind of looks like the flywheel side seal I just put in but unfortunately didn't save the bag so can't compare parts numbers

 

[Jre720]

Also any easy ways to press this thing in? On the flywheel side I heated the case and froze the seal is that okay on this side as well? Or any better ideas I don't have a real big deep socket or I would do that

 

[Jre720]

So I'm having a little trouble getting this new seal over the collar ..any ways to do it as you can see in the one picture the seal that came out was a 2 piece metal seal and the collar fits perfect...the new seal witch I have checked and is the right seal for This side I can't get the collar to fit any ideas on how to get it in there without it braking?

 

[Jre720]

Possible someone changed the collar ? Or does it fit just real tight
