 Replacing GT seal I've just started to notice a very small amout of grease on my belt. I ordered the new seal from Gatortail. How difficult are these to replace??

Re: Replacing GT seal Nothing to it. You need snap ring pliers to make the job easy.
Also a heavy rubber mallet and good penetrating oil if you ran in saltwater. This is for the pulley and taper lock if it is corroded bad like mine was.

Re: Replacing GT seal Remove the 2 allen head screws from the taper lock and place one back in the middle hole. The pulley should slide down towards the prop off of the taper lock with the tension of the screw pushing them apart. If that does not work, then soak in good penetrating fluid and hit the pulley with the rubber mallet and see if it frees itself while tightening up on the allen bolt you screwed back in the middle hole. Gradually hit harder since the pulley can be bent.

Re: Replacing GT seal There are 2 snap rings in front and behind the bearing which hold it in place. The seal goes on top of that.

Re: Replacing GT seal I'm at a standstill trying to get this pulley and taper lock off the shaft. I've tried everything posted above but I can't get it figured out. If anyone has any suggestions or help, that'd be awesome.

Re: Replacing GT seal Whack that fucker. We just tok one off an 04 that ran its whole life in salt. Took a socket extension and steel hammer and hit the gear part towards the belt and tapped a screw driver in where it compresses and tapped it off. If that doesn't work just get a gear grab and put the nut on the threaded part and impact it.

Re: Replacing GT seal just pushes out. rides on the lip of the seals it meant to be a wear part so you dont damage shaft. or are you talking about the housing itself? if so pipe wrench works
