SEAL Installation

[RES]

I finally isolated the leak in my 020AV to the seal on the clutch side. I purchased a new seal. I don't have the installation tool but I think I have a driver that will keep it straight. Does anyone have any advice on how to make this installation problem free?

There's a couple of threads on seal installation on this site already. Do a search, and that'll get you started. Beyond that, you can download the 020 service manual from Tom Thompson's site.

you can use a deep socket. or a punch. the punch will have to have a big head on it so it dont punch thru. lube the seal up too.

Thanks guys for the info. I will do the search. At $18.00 for that little seal, I don't want to mesh it up.
