How to adjust an oil seal spring to make it seal tighter on a steering box input shaft. This method is useful to mitigate a reduction in the sealing shaft diameter after you have dressed out unwanted shaft wear grooves or shaft pitting.
Excellent appreciate your explanation I have a countershaft sprocket seal that’s leaking and it’s brand new and it’s the third one I put on so evidently it needs to be tighter and I thought about this but didn’t understand how to spring came apart very very good explanation you actually answered a big problem dealing with on my 650 Honda XR dirtbike great! Great idea the pointed in and the flat end explains at all thank you my name is Thomas Fresno California
I have the same problem. Tiny groove worn on the camshaft carrier on a Trooper, coincidentally. Was thinking of sanding a 1mm off the oil seal so it seats a little further back. But this could help too.
