Hi All,
I got the rear engine seal in last nite. Just slid the new seal into the channel & worked it around - it took awhile but - fits great!!! Looks so much better!!! Then there's the front & sides: (IMG:style_emoticons/default/ohmy.gif) Is there a easy way to install these seals??? I don't think I can slide these in using the same method & I don't want to booger up the channel in the process. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Thanks, Gary |

I just did this a couple of weeks ago. For the sides and the front I set the lower lip of the seal into the channel, and then used a screwdriver to press the top lip into the channel a little at a time all the way down the length of the seal. Really goes in very easy this way. Took maybe 5 minutes per seal (assuming your engine is out - would be much more difficult with the engine in).
