its in!!..final!

my way right or wrong...

took fly wheel off!!!!!!, dropped crank and gap at top of crank was just wide enough to fit the rope seal in.

by this i mean the seal is put in, and ontop of the crank from inside the clutch housing and pull down both sides.

using pitcher wire made two nooses and pulled each side down, tighten crank and seat seal in by turning the engine.

few... i drowned the seal in oil for an hour or so..and shaped it in the bottom shell before installing it above the crank.


thanks for everyones help...im now of out to put the rest of it together and see hows we go! god know what its done to the front oil seal but at least my clutch should be dry!
