2007 600 Crank Seal

[BC Sno-Ghost]

Anyone have any experience changing the crank seal on an 07 600 Rev(SDI). I've got some seepage behind the primary clutch. Looks like it could be a bugger to get at. Rumour has it I may have to pull the motor and split the crank case to put a new seal in because there's a lip on the seal which has to fit inside a groove.(?) Anyone have any experience with these? Thanks in advance.

Nope... but it begs to offer why it's leaking?

Sounds like maybe burnt bearing seal causing it to pressure up..?? Blowby?

I might be talking out my ass, but sorry I can't help. Just like to ask questions =)

I "thought" ive heard of people pulling this seal once the clutch is removed. Are you sure it's flanged?

Thanks Shibby. Well according to the mechanic that's helping me get this done, it is phlanged. He said he's not really sure either why its leaking. He's doing some research to see what the best approach may be.
