• 4he1 Front Oil Seal Installation Procedure

Not to long ago True Mechanics Fixed cars. We didn't just replace parts. We would take stuff apart find the problem. Replace as little as possible. Then put it back togther.

First time every time. Well this is a short How to on seals. The one I'm going to show you is the Crankshaft Seal on the front of the motor. This seal is an easy seal to replace. Getting to it is tough. But this seal is only 7 bucks when changing the oil pump that it is attached to is 300 bucks.

This is the same seal that is used in a few differnt areas of you motor. Plus it is used in alot of off car places too. I didn't have the factory tool to install this seal. So I had to make one.

I don't have a pic of this. But this is basic. Take a thin Flat head screw drive. Place it between the shaft and the seal.

Slip it in and up and pry the seal out. This mite take a few pulls depending on how'stuck' the seal is. Once it's out clean the area. If you don't own the seal yet. Take it with you to the parts store and match it up.

Getting the wrong seal will drive you nuts. It has a part number on it that can be crossed to another brand. Ok now it's time to put it in. Lets make a tool.

This is your tool in a nut shell. Piece of pipe. And the Crankshaft bolt. Pipe is a little long now.

But all we have to do it measure a little and cut the pipe. Take the hold it against the side of the pipe. Mark the pipe. Now hold the Seal to that mark. Hold the washer to that mark.

Now that is you cut mark. Take a piece of paper and wrap it around the pipe. Square up the edges. Now make a line around the pipe. Take your saw. Cut off wheel.

What ever you have and cut the pipe ON THE INSIDE OF THAT LINE. We need the thickness of the blade gone for a reason. It will give you room to start the treads. Still with me? Easy street now. OK Take the seal.Lube the seal.

Moly lube, White grease, wd40. I really don't care what you lube it with. But it must be lubed on the inside. Take a small amount of RTV gasket sealant and run it along the outside of the seal ring. (the outside circle of the seal that touchs the motor.NOT THE SHAFT).

Slip the seal on the shaft (no jokes please) and stick in the Hole (no jokes really) start the seal. You will feel it start. Nice and easy. Spin just a little bit. You have to get the inside lip over the back ot the Shaft. (ok you can joke now. That was funny) Now place the pipe against the seal.

Put the washer on the bolt. Screw the bolt in to the shaft. Hand tighten that bolt till it bottoms out.

LOOK LONG AND HARD AT THAT SEAL. ARE YOU GOING IN STRAIGHT. WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO, Do you need to spin it.

Do you need to push it in on one side just a little. It has to go in straight.

Now that you are sure that everything is lined up. Turn the bolt.

LOOOK at the seal. Turn the bolt again. Is it going in easy. Did it just pop in there a lttle. You will feel all of this.

Keep turning till you are half way in. The back off the tool. Pull it out Look at the seal.

Going in right? Put the seal installer back on and run it in. Stop with the seal is flush with the houseing.

Here is a couple simple but very effective tools to help you make easy work of aligning your Timing and Rear Main Covers. CNC Machined to exact tolerances, the AlignIt tools get the covers centered perfectly with the crank. The O-ring design makes for a perfect snug fit no matter the temperature that can cause expansion/contraction of engine covers, crank & tools that will hinder a perfect fit. The O ring design eliminates this problem. After the covers are centered and torqued down, use the AlignIt Tools to install the seals in seconds!

(See videos) Having the seal centered accurately with the crank minimizes the chance of seal leakage. If you prefer not to replace your Timing Cover Seal we have the Hub Simulator AlignIt Tool that allows the Timing cover to be aligned with the seal installed. Made of billet High Impact Plastic.
