O.K. You use yamabond on the case halves make shure the mating surfaces are clean and free of dirt and oil. When you apply the Yamabond, use as little as possible but maintain a good bead..that's the key to getting a good seal. There shoild be no breaks or gaps..As for the seals, you have to buy them..Moose and cometic makes a complete gasket kit for the banshee with everything you need. Unless your running reed spacers, then you'll need to have a total of 6 reed cage gaskets. Do not re-use any of your old seals and gaskets... Your just asking for trouble.

Lower end seals... should be 7 I believe:

 

(2) crank seals

(1) kicker shaft seal

(1) water pump seal

(1) clutch arm seal (top of case)

(1) counter sprocket seal

(1) shifter lever seal

 

I think thats it? Thats what I got when re-doing my tranny a couple months ago.

 

But yeah, what MotulMonsta said -- DO NOT reuse any of the existing seals! Spend a few bucks and get a kit by Moose or Cometic. You don't want to be sucking air or anything else into the crank chamber, or leaking gear oil everywhere..
