2-53 Detroit diesel rear main seal
Ok I'm having difficulty finding a part number or a specific tool for the 2-53 Detroit diesel rear main. I have tried to install a seal and had no luck, ruined the seal. Problem I'm having is I cant find one that is for the 2-53.

Re: 2-53 Detroit diesel rear main seal
The rear crankshaft seal for the 2-53 is part # 5116229 this is the John Deere and Detroit Diesel number. The same seal is used on the 2-53 3-53 4-53 and 6v53.
If the crankshaft is grooved from the old seal it should have the oversize seal and wear sleeve # 5196852 seal and 5196851 sleeve, installed
The Detroit install tool # j3154-02 only works if the rear cover is off the engine. A hardwood block works for me to install them when the cover is on. You could make a seal driver from a piece of pipe.

Thanks for the reply. I ended up making a seal driver from pipe and got it in. Thanks for the help.
