1. Install new front output seal in front case with Installer Tool 6888 and Tool Handle C-4171 (Fig. 103) as follows:
a. Place new seal on tool. Garter spring on seal goes toward interior of case.
b. Start seal in bore. Once seal is started, continue tapping seal into bore until installer tool bottoms against case.
c. Remove installer and verify that seal is recessed the proper amount. Seal should be 2.03 to 2.5 mm (0.080 to 0.100 inch) below top edge of
seal bore in front case (Fig. 104). 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.
