Title: crank seals in or out
Post by: bige on January 06, 2012, 12:05:25 PM

on a kx 500 2003 do the cases have to be split to replace crank seals like on a 2003 kx 250? cause they are pushed in from the in side. i think i may have a leaking seal on stator side. hate the thought of spliting cases to replace seal.
