counter shaft seal

does the case have to be split to put the seal in? the one behind the front sprocket? it has a little lip on it which makes me think it does

RCVTR is an unknown quantity at this point
This was discussed a while back in detail. Do a search.

In short, I would, but you may not have to.

NO DO NOT SPLIT YOUR CASE.!!. it slips out. I had a leak on my 98 about 7 month ago. Cost me 40 labor and a 10 dollar part ..... there is a rubber seal glued inside a metal sleeve that sits about 1.5 inches out from the rubber seal... trust me.. i just had this done.... look at the micro fische. you see the inner seal connected to a laeger metal housing or disk. It must be pressed into the case .. I looks like a frisbee ..... i posted pics somewhere here youll see..

see the outer black ring that runs about 1/4 inch in from the case. That whole thing pulls out...all that dented area came out..

i know the seal comes out the thing bothering me is that lip is on the seal and it clearly has a channel for the lip on the case. the lip wont let it go in and i feel uneasy about grinding it down if honda put it there. i know some said its no big deal, but i dont want to have it pop out on me later down the line. so it sits now as im getting ready to move and still have a few projects to finish... not a good time to start on a new one. has anyone had any problems with the ground seal?
