Easy way to install a 1 piece rear main seal on 5.7, 5.0, 4.3 Chevy V8
Рет қаралды 70,770
4 жыл бұрынThe engine I'm working on is a 1997 5.7L truck Vortec motor but should work on most 1987-2002 Chevy V8 LT1, 8.1 BBC, Vortec 5.7, 5.0 & 4.3 V6 except LS. Feel free to like or make comments if you have anything to add that I missed. Sorry for my big pumpkin head in the way of some of the shots

HIT THE THUMBS UP BUTTON ON THIS COMMENT IF YOU WANT ME TO MAKE ANOTHER VIDEO WITH BETTER AUDIO

That sleeve is an alignment tool also, leave it installed while you torque the retainer down so it will be correctly centered

HIT THE CC BUTTON FOR CLOSE CAPTIONING IF YOU CAN'T HEAR ME. WILL TRY TO ADD AUDIO LATER ONCE I FIGURE THAT OUT. SORRY FOR THE SOUND

Can you provide the torque spec for the retainer bolts? I'm sure it can't be more than 12-18 ft lbs...but I can't find the spec online (yet).

Is it possible to change the rear main seal and that housing gasket while it's still in the truck, without having to drop the pan??? I'm having trouble

I wouldn't use Emery cloth, you don't want to scratch it you need to polish it with corcus cloth.

Is it better to remove the entire housing and re-center it like you show, or just pop out the old seal, and replace by leaving the housing in the stock place? I’m at this crossroad right now…. Any advice would be very helpfull!!! Thanks!

Where did you get that white sleeve? Or where did you get the Sesl?

What is that part number for that rear main seal sleeve?

If you're talking about the plastic alignment sleeve, they're included when you buy a new Fel Pro main seal

So it would be a rear main seal kit right?

@@tyhenio3640 Use Fel Pro part # BS40656. It comes with the alignment sleeve, rear main seal and retainer gasket.

I usually use assembly lube on those seals

Fel Pro says not to in their instructions. Not sure why because I usually grease all engine seals too. Who knows. It hasn't failed yet.

Just a guess here-- volume is set very low. Pick up an external mic or add some gain before uploading.
