Disco 2 TD5 Crankshaft pulley - seal to change or not to change?

mad85 · Mar 31, 2023

need to change the crankshaft pulley and wondering if i should also replace the seal. currently it is not leaking but no idea what can happen after i have been working on the pulley. question is, any tips on levering the old seal out and pushing the new one in without spending around 400 quid in official lr tools

I've done the job twice on different D2s and I've replaced it anyway rather than risk disturbing it and having to take the pulley off again to replace it.
I pry it out carefully with a screwdriver, and use the old seal and a hammer to tap the new one in.
