How to Service and Repair a Crankshaft Seal Assembly on 2005 Chrysler 300?

The seal adapter holds the crankshaft rear oil seal, so they must be changed and serviced together. To start, take out the negative battery cable and then raise the vehicle. Start by removing the bolts that keep the splash shield in place, then remove the splash shield, the structural collar and finally the transmission. Following that, unscrew the bolts on the flex plate, replace the main bearing cover and remove the flex plate. The manufactures do not allow you to swap the stamped steel seal with the cast aluminum adapter and seal assembly. Use a socket to remove the two screws holding the retainer of the seal and the crankshaft rear oil seal/adapter. To do the installation, surface clean the connecting parts of the main seal and fit the assembly using special tool 6926-1. Insert the seal retaining bolts by hand, tighten enough to attach the Special Tools 8225 to the oil pan fasteners and make certain the 2.7L makings are facing the cylinder block. When using the included Special Tool 8225 to compress the seal assembly, tighten the screws to 12 Nm (105 inch lbs.) and afterwards, take off the special tool. After assembly of the oil pan, flex plate, backing plate and their bolts, position the transmission properly. Attach the retaining bolts and splash shield, secure them to the lower splash shield, drive the vehicle down, add oil, put back the negative battery cable and afterward turn on the engine to ensure there are no leaks.
