  • Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

250-500cc Crank seals which way around

Ive put some fresh crank seals in the husky 360 95,but its still smoking heavily,ive been told its most likely that the seal are rubbbish,do you people know which way around the seals fit as i cannot find any images of them fitted on the web.Is the recessed surface facing in or out to the crank bearings
 
when looking from the shaft ends from the RHS and LHS you should always see the flat closed side of the seals. when installing surfaces should be very clean and smooth (no seal cut wear grooves. I always mic and verify the shaft OD and the case ID to verify the seals are correct sizes. use lots of lube when installing and use a good tool to install them without banging on them too much
 
Thanks for this info Robert,i do know now that the non clutch side seal is now the wrong way around
