One of the things Uncle Jack found when he started using the new
improved rear seals in his race car was the instructions weren't quite
accurate.
I might be mistaken as I don't have my notes in front of me
but I think the diameter you are instructed to turn the crank was to
be turned to ended up being just a little to small in diameter. I think
he ended up increasing the diameter slightly. Also I believe he shortened
the spring slightly to provide more tension and I remember something
about cutting the seal length down a little.
You could probably search the FOT email archives and come up with the
appropriate information. If not I might be able to find my notes.
Sorry I can't provide the specific details but its been a LONG time
since Jack and I discussed the issue. Tony might chime in with better
information as well.
Then again, I could be totally confused here!
