Gearbox oil seal leak help

[bigberty101]

from memory, I don't think the green sleeves can be changed without stripping the trans but I cant remember. I straightened mine, well made it round again with a ball hammer, works fine. apart from it being very fiddly and annoying, I cant really give any pointers. just drop the gearbox oil obviously and make sure you have patience is about all I can suggest, took me about 2 hours to get the little clip back on the offside cup and never again am I doing that haha. good luck

yeah them clips are near impossible. I made a tool to pull flange in against the spring to help get the clip back on. 6 inch long by 1 inch diameter pipe. drill 10mm hole through the middle of it. then get some m10 threaded rod and a nut. works a treat. sometimes the flange can be tight in coming off so a couple of careful taps with a hammer should free it. as for the green sleeve they can just be levered out but you would probably be best straightening it best you can and fitting new seal with a dose of sealant on the outer edge.
