jaredvh Posted January 20, 2008 Report Posted January 20, 2008 My quad is leaking tranny oil from around the shifter. How do I take that seal out? Is there any tricks to replacing it? Quote
sheerider1026 Posted January 20, 2008 Report Posted January 20, 2008 get something that will hook into it without damaging the case.. it will pop out, then push the new one in.. prop the bike up on its side so oil doesn't gush out.. Quote

Oh wow, i feel kinda stupid for asking if its that easy, Just a pick of somesort should do the trick. Quote
jaredvh Posted January 20, 2008 Author Report Posted January 20, 2008 I bought a kit to do: Crankshaft oil seal Water pump seal Shift shaft seal Clutch oil seal Kick start oil seal Transmission shaft seal assuming they all install in a similar way? Quote
fastrthnu Posted January 20, 2008 Report Posted January 20, 2008 My little trick is to take a drywall screw or simular and screw it into the seal, and then pull on the screw with pliers. Sometimes the screw will hit the casing and push it out alittle too. Quote

NitroTate Posted January 21, 2008 Report Posted January 21, 2008 IF you haven't gotten it out yet... I popped my out a couple weeks ago very easily with a flat head screwdriver... just stick the screwdriver into the hole and underneath the seal then pry downward toward the case and it should pop right out.

jaredvh Posted February 24, 2008 Author Report Posted February 24, 2008 Alright, I decided to attempt this today and as soon as i put the quad on its side gas poured out.....guess i gotta do it with an empty tank..... Quote
