How to Service and Repair a Crankshaft Seal on 2003 Jeep Liberty?

Before dealing with the rear crankshaft oil seal, take out the transmission and flex plate. Insert the flat blade of a 3/16 screwdriver between the dust lip and the metal case to separate the seal without touching the crankshaft seal. Some contact to the crankshaft chamfer is acceptable. If you find burrs or scratches on the crankshaft edge, gently clean them using 400 grit sandpaper to not harm the seal as you replace it. You do not need to put lubricant on the seal when you are installing it. Insert Tool 6926-1 Seal Guide at the front of the crankshaft and slide the seal over the guide, placing its lip toward the crankcase. Use Special Tool 6926-2 to drive the seal into the block and let C-4171 slide into place until the bottom hits the block, making sure the seal remains flat to prevent oil leaks. Put the transmission back down but do not tighten it. Insert and tighten the bolts with 95 Nm (70 ft. lbs.) of pressure that uses Mopar Lock & Seal Adhesive on them, then secure the flexplate using that same product.
