Hello everyone!,

Just installed the Bronze updated oil pump drive gear and I would like to replace the cam shaft seal (P/N 11124).
Does anyone could be able to help me get an idea how change it?, What tool I need? I have no idea how difficult it is to replace it, Although it appears to be in good shape.


Any hints or tips would be gratefully appreciated!.

I never heard of one failing, for what that's worth. The crank seal on the other hand, does fail from time to time...

If it's anything like the one I just changed on an Old 73 FLH, it's really easy.

Pry the old one out, tap in the new one.
Check your manual to be sure.

(you DO have a service manual, right?)

They pry out suprisingly easy and go back in just as easily.

15-20 minute job depending on how slow you do it...
