Re: Propeller Shaft Seal Installation

Just finished rebuilding my second prop shaft. If you remove the proper circlips you can push on inner shaft from transmission end to remove. You can also install inner shaft from transmission end if you pay attention to circlip set-up. Using hydraulic press to push from transmission end of shaft ensures NO MUSHROOMED THREADS on prop end. Beating on the threaded end of shaft is asking for trouble! Bought new seals (25x52x10) from bearing supply house. They went in no problem (can't say the same for those that Hugh sells).
