ok i was told to change to shift shaft seal while i was changing the stator. i have run into a problem. was i mis informed or what. acording to my manual the in order to change to seal you must crack to case. is this so or am i just not understanding it corectley. i have the seal but i cant see how to change it without the shaft comming out.

also i havent been able to find yamabond4 the local shop is out what other sealents can i use and where should i use them at.

once the stator cover is off just remove the snap ring & the washer over the seal.  then screw a sheetrock screw into the seal & pull it out.  use a deep socket to install the new seal.

alright ill try to find threebond 1104 is it sold at part stores or is it a dealer product only. the problem ive got now is my dealer is a yahama dealer and when i ordered my parts i asked them to put a tube of yamabond up for me and they didnt and now they are out and wont get any more till tuesday. so now the v is sitting in peices in the garage.

i decied sence i cant put the case back to gether yet i might as well move the r/r while i got the down time

I got my Threebond 1104 from a dealer somewhere, it was a multi-brand dealership. However, I did see it once or twice at a regular auto parts store.
