How to Install a Crankshaft Seal on Dodge Ram 3500?

After mounting the crankshaft main bearing seal, apply no lubricant to the outside or front edge of the rear seal. Set the plastic seal guide against the crankshaft rear face and then lay the oil seal over the guide. Tap the seal into position using the 8349 Crankshaft Rear Oil Seal Installer and C-4171 Driver Handle and make sure the installer is up against the cylinder block crankshaft bore when you stop. With the seal in place, the next steps are flexplate and then transmission installation.

How to Remove and Service a Crankshaft Seal on Dodge Ram 3500?

Remove the transmission first, if you're working inside the vehicle and then proceed to remove the flexplate in order to work on the main bearing seal. This is worth noting: after the crankshaft oil seal is removed, it cannot be used again. The crankshaft rear oil seal tool, Special Tool 8506, needs to be pushed inside the seal as much as possible. Keep tightening the tool until you cannot turn it any more. Should the tool be applied in a wrong way on the very first attempt, it might get loose without detaching from the engine. After that, take out the crankshaft rear oil seal using Special Tool 8506.
