How to replace rear crankshaft seal on 4.3L V6 engine on GMC Sierra?

Remove the transmission and the driveplate. Inspect the oil seal, as well as the oil pan and engine block surface for signs of leakage. Sometimes an oil pan gasket leak can appear to be a rear Crankshaft Seal leak. Pry the Crankshaft Seal from the block with a screwdriver, being careful not to nick or scratch the crankshaft or the seal bore. Thoroughly clean the seal bore in the block with a shop towel, removing all traces of oil and dirt. Lubricate all surfaces with a very small amount of engine oil. Install the Crankshaft Seal over the end of the crankshaft and carefully tap it into place. Most seals are marked "This Side Out" to eliminate confusion as they have a different design than the old-style seals previously used. The tool tightly fits the diameter of the Crankshaft Seal and, used with a hammer, drives the seal in. Install the driveplate and the transmission.

GMC Sierra Crankshaft Seal

The GMC Sierra Crankshaft Seal is an important guardian that helps keep the engine oil inside at the front of the crankshaft. This allows the truck to run smoothly and efficiently. Crafted from molded rubber bonded to a supportive metal ring, this circular barrier fits snugly around the spinning shaft, preventing oil from escaping the crankcase and ensuring that internal parts remain slick with lubrication so that friction remains low. Over the years, the basic design in GMC light duty trucks has been the same since the Crankshaft Seal is based on the use of a spring-loaded lip that balances flexibility and tight sealing pressure. Drivers will see dark deposits under the nose of a Sierra or oil sprayed on pulleys when the Crankshaft Seal starts to wear out, a sure sign that the once smooth lip has hardened or cracked after many miles. Some engines use the standard front Crankshaft Seal with a rear one near the flywheel, the difference being location rather than function. Replacing a compromised Crankshaft Seal promptly helps to stave off oil starvation and protects bearings and the reliable GMC engine at the heart of every Sierra.

Each OEM GMC Sierra Crankshaft Seal we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.

Q: How to replace rear crankshaft seal on 4.3L V6 engine on GMC Sierra?
A:
Remove the transmission and the driveplate. Inspect the oil seal, as well as the oil pan and engine block surface for signs of leakage. Sometimes an oil pan gasket leak can appear to be a rear Crankshaft Seal leak. Pry the Crankshaft Seal from the block with a screwdriver, being careful not to nick or scratch the crankshaft or the seal bore. Thoroughly clean the seal bore in the block with a shop towel, removing all traces of oil and dirt. Lubricate all surfaces with a very small amount of engine oil. Install the Crankshaft Seal over the end of the crankshaft and carefully tap it into place. Most seals are marked "This Side Out" to eliminate confusion as they have a different design than the old-style seals previously used. The tool tightly fits the diameter of the Crankshaft Seal and, used with a hammer, drives the seal in. Install the driveplate and the transmission.
