Good video! Your the only person who shown getting that nylon ring through and out! I am having a hell of a time getting that over the crank and the plate all the way on.

One of the best vids for demonstrating the front crank seal on the 6bt. Thanks.

[@natemcgowan5416]

Easily the best video by far on the front main seal. Thank you so much!

Best front cover video on RUclips

Awesome indepth teaching. Videos like this gives me confidence to be able to do these jobs myself.

[@williamtoney2599]

If that’s the same seal setup the ISC 8.3 has, that’s not a depth gauge….it’s a dust shield to keep debris out of the seal lip.

I have heard that you should have 3 bolts snug before pulling out the seal protector/guide...it was said that the plastic piece is also a locater....

[@brianparsons930]

Didn't look like you did a kdp. Also got the install tool from Amazon. Mine didn't work with the repair sleve seal. I have a lathe so I could machine the land on the to accommodate the id of the seal.

[@thatgraysuburban]

He did do the kdp, you can’t see the dowel pin by the bolt

[@alexandermales3793]

Whats the tool part number? Ebay doesn't have it any more

[@Fenrirphotography06525]

If I pull the front cover to do the front cover gasket do I need to do the crank seal?

[@jamesvanzandt11]

Might as well since you have it tore down that far

[@rudyzamora8295]

My depth gauge fit in the hole very tightly. I had to bang it in all the way first then press the seal in from the other side. Now it leaks! What did I do wrong?

[@sailorbacon9428]

Did you ever figure out what happened because mine did the same thing

[@rudyzamora8295]

@Sailor Bacon No, I just add oil :)

[@youngrevival9715]

Is this the 8.3

[@Rhino5.0]

Arent you supposed to take the plastic off

[@justinkairo6089]

Will this help fix an oil leak?

[@jamesvanzandt11]

Well if it’s leaking from the crank seal then yes lol

[@TSNOutdoors]

Dohave to pull the motor

[@AnxiousCowboy]

No but remove radiator yes

[@Fenrirphotography06525]

If I pull the front cover to do the front cover seal do I need to do the crank seal?

[@fluffygamer5335]

Good idea to do it. I thought my timing cover was leaking but it was the crank seal

[@Fenrirphotography06525]

@@fluffygamer5335 awesome thanks so much
