    Honestly these are fine. Better than the upside down bullshit that was on there. No ones gonna be looking that closely or even care these aren’t perfect.

    I swapped my front main seal today and it was easier than I expected. The only difficult part was keeping it from spinning while I torqued it down. If I were to redo it, I would loctite and ugga dugga it on.

    I removed the fan and shroud and it gave me so much room to work. It was easy too. Two bolts for the shroud and 4 for the fan and I lifted them out together.

    That gave me enough room to get an impact on the bolt and it backed it right out. The pulley came right off too, I didn’t need a puller.

    Getting the seal out took a little finesse but it came out and to put the new one in I pushed it in my hand as much as I could and then tapped it in with a 35mm socket and a hammer.

    Used my homemade tool to torque the pulley to 180 ft lbs and man, that was difficult. You can see why the tool bent. Back together and runs fine. Time will tell if the leak starts again.

    Here’s where I landed with the resi sticker. I decided a small legit one is preferred for me. So @Gunshot-6A if you have a small one, I would love to trade you.
