Re: [Amel Yacht Owners] Pipe for pushing seals into C-drive


Bill & Judy Rouse <yahoogroups@...>
 

Alan,

I use the removed wear bushing reversed on the shaft to push the seals in. I drive the bushing in with a piece of pipe that slides over the end of the bushing that normally is inserted into the seals. My piece of pipe has an inside dimension of 52mm and a length of 23cm. It was a piece of scrap I found in the yard...it works, but it could be smaller.

Could someone give me the dimensions of the pipe you use to push the new seals over the propshaft and into the C-drive housing.

Thanks
