I built my 2011 5.0 in dec of 2013. I recently pulled it to do some crap(timing chain, phasers, etc) before I install Hellion TT. I'm changing the timing chain cover because it has hair-line fractures in it from factory(that I plugged up with Motocraft TA29). But look at the pic, at the oil where it was obviously leaking at the front seal. When I installed it, I used some locktite around the seal where it meets the timing cover. I tapped it in straight, not crooked, blah blah
Someone plz tell me the proper procedure of installing front(and rear)seals.
Help me to=
#1 not put it in backwards lol
#2 to know what to use to tap it in(hopfully there's something can be done BESIDES using special tool)
#3 to know what to use around the outside as I'm installing it(loctite, gasketmaker,?, etc?)
#4 to know how far to tap it in
#5 to know what lube to put on the seal(side that touches crank pulley ..I'm assuming motor oil)
Thanks and please
