    During the supercharger install today, I got to the crank pulley and noticed I have a leaking front crank seal with under 18k miles on the clock. Didnt see it until I got the crank bolt off and noticed oil on the bolt, washer, and crank pulley. Anyone else notice front their crank seal leaking with such low miles?

    At the dealer today getting the SC flash on my truck and asked about the leaking front crank seal. They said they wont fix until they see visible signs of oil leaking. I even brought in my stock crank bolt with oil on it.

    Those of you that replaced your front crank seal, what brand did you go with. Not sure if I trust OEM toyota seal since it leaking with such low miles
