Good job changing it before it broke. Don't know if you ever changed the crank seal before but be careful with the alignment as the bottom timing cover has both the oil pump and crank seal on it. Last time I changed mine I did a double check with a mirror and noticed the crank seal lips were messed up and had to redo it. I used Toyotas sealant where it bolts to the front of the oil pan. Good video sir.
Yeah it developed a pretty bad knock I couldn't figure out and then I moved across the country for school. Getting a working stock motor in was the best option to get the car running again.
Just in time! Thank you for the video!
Thanks for watching

Thanks for the tip. Last time I did the crank seal was with a fresh engine on an engine stand. Much easier than in the car.
Always wondered why you switch from the 2.9 L?

@@reichartsworkshop Oh damn, yeah at least you're able to drive it for the time being. Plans to go back to the stroker later down the line?
