Video-In this completely free DIY video we show you how to remove and replace a shifter lever shaft seal on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle. It doesn't really matter the year or model of Harley, as this seal and setup has been used for a very long time.
This shift lever seal can go bad and start leaking oil. To get to it, you'll need to remove your entire primary drive.

Yup, we'll show you how to remove your entire Harley-Davidson primary drive, remove the shifter lever shaft seal, and then replace it. Then we show you how to put the entire primary back on. We'll also show you some tips and tricks along the way.
Note: You'll need a replacement shifter lever shaft seal and appropriate primary gaskets and seals (shown in the video so check it out). You'll also need appropriate fluids to refill your primary drive.
Save yourself a ton of money by not having to take your Harley to the dealership to have these types of projects done. You can do this right in your very own shop or garage and right on the kickstand. Plus, have the absolute satisfaction of wrenching on your own Harley!

Great video guys, I’m just a young buck trying to work on my bike to save on cost of repairs to get a new shifter shaft rod. This is by far the most detailed, high quality video I’ve seen and it definitely helped a lot, you guys are the best!

I just changed shift shaft seal on my 2021 Roadking Special without removing inner and outer primary...lots of room to get at in on the M8...took me an hour and a half tops...removed transmission top cover..removed trans shift lever clip and washer. unhooked shifter pawl spring...lift pawl...pushed shifter shaft through towards transmission...bent a piece of welding rod...picked out old seal...popped out easily with with shifter shaft pushed in....push shaft back to normal position making sure shifter centering spring in place...heat shrink tube over the shifter spline and oil up...slip new seal over shaft and set into place with a 1/2 inch socket levering with a screw driver. Replace everything back in reverse order of disassembly...good to go. M8 has lots of room between primary to get at it.

Hey Ryan, appreciate the video man. My 2007 nightrain appears to be leaking from the torx pin just above the shift shaft, is this a common/ hopefully easy fix? It doesn't seem to have a seal, and there doesn't seem to be much info on the net about this. Thanks again for the LAB vids and your time. Ben

Ryan Urlacher I bought a 1990 fxrs and it has forward controls and I want to put it back to mid controls. When it comes to the shifter shaft, do I have to take the outer and inner primary off? Or can I just take the outer off? It doesn’t look like there’s enough room to put the shifter shaft in with the inner left on. Thank you for all your videos and your time.

@rafdecc 7 жыл бұрын

IT COST ME 800 PLUS FOR THE COMPENSATOR REPLACEMENT. THE PRIMARY LEAKED AFTERWARD. THEY CLAIMED IT WAS THE SHIFTER LEVER LEAKING FROM TRANSMISSION. I NEVER LOST FLUID FROM TRANI, JUST PRIMARY. WHEN I TOOK IT BACK NEW SERVICE MANAGER, I WAS TOLD BEFORE "IT MIGHT BE THE INNER PRIMARY." ANOTHER 340 DOLLARS. THEY STILL CLAIMED IT WAS THE SHIFTER SEAL. THE COPENSATOR SHOULD BE A RECALL. THE SERVICE MANAGER, FORMER, SAID, "WE ARE HAVING TO REPLACE ALL OF THEM." THEY USED THE 88 COMPENSATOR FOR THE 96 ENGINE . THEN THE REPLACEMENT ONE HAD TO BE UPGRADED TO THE SCREAMING EAGLE ONE AS THE OTHERS FAILED. I ONLY POINT THIS OUT AS YOU SUPPORT MY COMMENTS. I LOVE MY HARLEY BUT MANAGEMENT IS GOING THE WAY OF GM. HARLEY IS NOT AS BIG AS GM SO MUCH EASIER TO FAIL. I DON'T WANT TO SEE THAT. I HOPE SOMEONE FROM MANAGEMENT SEE'S MY COMMENT HERE.

Great video, very well done and detailed. I liked very much no matter what anyone else says. Been riding since the mid 70's first HD 50 Panhead. Noticed my shift arm was way loose on my 98 Road King and found this video. Question, shift arm appears to be aluminum so it will wear instead of the trans shaft splines? Is that the case?

Does the shift shaft going through the primary need a seal?! I’m going from forward controls to mids.

@danitron151 4 жыл бұрын

Yes, you're going to want that seal that comes in most kits

@spoads8619 4 жыл бұрын

Danitron thanks but I’ve already had the work don’t a few months ago. It’s called a tower gasket. No one mentioned it in any videos. Dynademos did my mid swap and a very detailed video. 🤙🏽

Is there a reason a air impact gun is not used? My 98 RK has a bolt instead of a torx but it is very thin. Any input would be appreciated.

Impact is fine, but I would always break them loose by hand. Stripped out bolts are a real pain.

I have an 02 883 sportster it has 33k miles on it and I have like a flexible chrome over my cable and it's all the way up and tight on the cable the nut is up and for some reason the shift arm is up instead of down like most of the videos. Also my truck is broke down and I had to ride my HD all the way home in2nd gear. But I adjusted the arm So it will go into 1st now. Do I need to turn the shift arm down or just leave it up. I'm from Salisbury and HD shop is shut down and this is my 1st HD. I'm a LANDLORD AND ex ironworker/certified Welder for 25 years. But I like to watch videos and fix it myself most of the time. Thanks for the help in advance. PEACE OUT AND I'M NOW SUBSCRIBED TO CHANNEL.

How do you replace the rear shift shaft? I have a 2010 FLHTK the front shift shaft failed and I replaced the front shift shaft and the heel toe shifters. One week later 10 miles from home the rear shaft failed. Of course I was in 6th gear.

On my 2014 street glide special, my shifters went loose and I had to ride home using my heel to shift the linkinge, shift pedals are on tights but there's a issue with the shaft I believe, do you guys have a video on repairing this issue by any chance?

I've always thought red locktite was pretty much permanent. Can you confirm that you use red on these bolts? Or maybe you're using a red that isn't permanent?

@RyanUrlacher 3 жыл бұрын

Red is the toughest. You can still get bolts off when using red threadlock. It's not permanent, just the strongest.
