Got the first seal in! What a difference the SKF makes. It slid in with almost no effort compared to the stupid National/Timken. I didn't get it perfectly level. I can see a slight height difference between the two side. Maybe a mm or less. As long as I didn't turn the lip I don't see why it won't work. I drove it deeper than the factory seal to get it past where I scratched the crank, oops. I do need to come up with a sleeve for the pto side. A piece of tin can taped together isn't holding, the tape keeps coming loose. Someone needs to make a plastice one that is varible size to work on many different shaft sizes.

It is very important to install the seal square, what you have now is a seal installed oblong "0" vs round "O" to the shaft and will lead to premature failure. That's why folks advocate using a fender washer or the like for installation.

I even bought the bar thumb adjuster that the 2.3/16 had, but I finally put the screw adjuster back on.

3.7 (3700) because it's craftsman

Did you check rings to verify thin rings?

Mine has dual thin rings, for the record.

 

[Acornhill]

I have both a red power sharp and a red non power sharp. The power sharp is a 3800 the non power sharp is a 3700.

Is yours a power sharp or non power sharp? I have seen both ways.
