Gimbal Bearing Oil Seal Replacement

[g_speran]

Hello ALCON,
Before putting in my new Gimbal Bearing, I need to put in the new Gimbal Bearing Oil Seal that came out when I oulled out the Gimbal Bearing. Unfortunatly, when the Gimbal Bearing came out it pulled out the oil seal, which was expected, however I was un able to notice how the Oil seal was in place.
Anybody have any pic's on how the oil seal looks when it is installed. Words of wisdom also appreciated

Thanks,
Gary

Since pictures are worth a thousand words, Would image 'A' or Image 'B' be the correct way to install the Gimbal Beariling Oil Seal



Thanks

For future reference for individials wanting to replace the Gimbal Bearing Oil Seal yourself, do yourself a favor and order the oil seal tool that connects to the enginel alignment bar. This is a life saver and make it much easier to install the oil seal without damaging the oil seal.

Below I have attached pictures of the replacement oil seal and the oil seal tool that connects to the engine alignment tool

Hope this comes in handy



Thanks
