Introducing the FDM 3D printed 1UZ Front Main Seal Installer. Designed for the Toyota enthusiast or mechanic to conduct front main seal service on UZ engines. As part of regular engine maintenance (and racecar development), this seal must occasionally be replaced. This seal installer tool is a must for people who own or regularly work on UZ-powered vehicles.
The MK1 Front Main Seal Installer is designed to make the hassle of crank seal maintenance a little more bearable. The seal installer component allows you to seat the front main crank seal in a simple and repeatable manner, after all the hard work required to get to the seal in the first place.
Specifications:
The 1UZ Main Seal Installer was manufactured using state-of-the-art FDM printers, as well as a passionate and dedicated engineering team to formulate designs.
This component was printed using high-infill, ASA plastic to prevent part degradation and allow for repeated use. MK1 is capable of producing components in a variety of materials including PET-G, PET-CF, Carbon Fiber nylon, and more. Please reach out to us using our contact page if interested.
All parts are designed and fabricated in the United States.
Application:
The seal installer can be used in two ways.
Method 1 (recommended): Lubricate the inner lip of the seal and insert it through the front main crankshaft into the location of the oil pump housing. Place the seal installer over the front main seal and insert the stock crank bolt into the seal installer. Tighten the bolt until the seal sits on the same level as the oil pump housing. Do not over-torque the seal installer, a firm snug (less than 40 lb-ft if using a torque wrench) is all that is needed.
Method 2: Place the seal onto the oil pump housing and lightly press it in with the seal installer by hand, making sure the seal is centered on the oil pump housing. Then use a rubber mallet to lightly tap the seal in, until the seal installer bottoms out on the front main pulley end.
