How much money will i have to fork out?

[92 safari 17]

Hey guys, found that my front crankshaft seal is leaking on my Gq Patrol TD42 , just wondering how much it has cost anyone to fix this? is it a pull the motor out job?

[Sadam_Husain]

Rear crank seal is an engine out job but a front one is usually an engine in place job, pull the pully/harmonic ballancer off, waterpump and accerories and timing cover, replace seal and stick it all back together

[wopass]

do it in place dude, seal would be about 20 buks ish?. pull the radiator out, pull the front pully and replace the front seal, pop it all back together. this is a guess tho as ive never done one on a saf but should be close to corrrect D.B will know, hes good with those patrol's

92 saf,

Easiest seal to do. When it comes to the crank pulley, be prepared to take starter out to lock crank so you can get the nut off. A 1HDT engine has a torque of 500NM = FT= farkin tight.

ohh and you can undo that bolt with a good power bar and socket wedged on the chassis rail and a flick of the key

or if your not keen on that, put it in 4th gear chock the wheels and hand brake on hard and just undo it with that power bar and socket. tighten it the same way but with tourque wrench to correct tourque

Just make sure you rest the power bar against the correct chassis rail or they fly around a bit!!!!!!
