mer (Fig. 49). Once seal is started, continue tap-
ping seal into bore until installer tool bottoms

recessed the proper amount (Fig. 50). Seal should
be 2.03 to 2.5 mm (0.080 to 0.100 in.) below top
edge of seal bore in front case. This is correct final
seal position.
CAUTION: Be sure the front output seal is seated
below the top edge of the case bore as shown. The
seal could loosen, or become cocked if not seated
to recommended depth.
