You DeBoss! Make it look so easy. I have a 24V, love your vids, thanks Dave

My god at the rust. Glad I don't have to deal with that R&R'ing down here in the southern states.

This video was so quick and straightforward!

Damm i wish i could find a good mechanic in my area. Your a Beast 👌🏻

Great video with great info thank you again you’re the best

I was born and raised in the American Deep South and Canadian accents are pretty cool to me for some reason. An example is the pronunciation difference (American South vs Canadian) of the words “about” or “out.” It’s weird I know but at least it’s a positive comment I guess. Love this channel.

Thanks for the video, it is very helpful. When I removed the housing for the seal some of the oil pump gasket came with it. Can I use RTV there or do I need to now do my oil pump gasket too?

Excellent video, thank you !

Cummins sys to install seal dry and that applying oil on seal during assembly will result in leaking.

leaking oil? nah, just marking it's territory! there you go

Two words for the vid - laser pointer.

cgirl111 Agreed, and slow down on the snappy panning...keep the camera on the part you’re talking about for a bit longer than .5 seconds. I know he put a lot of effort into making this video, and it’s appreciated, but that initial section under the truck was difficult to watch.

Awesome video, im gonna 8nclude that the 24 valves with the VP44 doesn't have the seal in the flywheel housing, theyre the same as the 12v

Always make sure you can get the fill plug out first or your going to have a bad day

Hey do a automatic to manual swap. im thinking of doing it in a 06 5.9 ram

Hey man I curious to know how much it would cost to get this done

Thanks man I just saw a couple of days ago that mine was leaking!!!

Jack Sandoz I live just north of Houston and I got a quote today for $500 out the door. That’s seems like a bargain after watching this video. Hahaha

I know this is an old thread but thought I would ask. Does the cummins manual not state to install the crank seal housing first, then the seal with the alignment tool, then tap to appropriate depth with the install tool, then bolt down? I haven't seen anyone do it like that manual states. Or am I reading the manual incorrectly? Thanks

My pan gasket ripped when I took of the crank seal plate. Pull the whole pan and replace gasket or use sealant in plat of the pan gasket under the crank plate?

Do you wash the underside of the vehicles before you work if so how?

Looks like a huge pain in the ass. But I'd assume once you hear the shop quote for that repair, you'd be more motivated to do it yourself.

What about the oil pan gasket? Did you use RTV?

Are all Cummins have issues with crankshaft seal leaking and leaving grooves on the camshaft?

thanks for the video it was extremely helpful for me to do this myself, I just completed my replacement of the rear main on my 2006 5.9, it had backed out of the housing about 1/4 inch (similar to whats shown at 5:15) and it was the metal o-ring. The replacement was covered in rubber with about 4-5 ribs on it (which i had to get from a dealer, the aftermarket one was metal too). Could the seal back out due to a crank case vent clog/bad filter etc? the 06/07 breathers are integrated in the valve cover unfortunately and I haven't open'ed er up to look. Should i bother? It was a long and tedious job and I don't want to do it again. Spent more than half of that time just cleaning everything up.

Not an expert, but I would think something would be major wrong for too much crankcase pressure to push out the seal. I think I’d cold start the engine and see if you can detect some fumes from the breather tube (to determine the breather is not obstructed). Maybe loosen the oil cap when the engine is running fully warm and leave the cap over the hole. If fumes lift the cap, then you may have something like broken rings causing very high blow by and crankcase pressure.

2 years later and the new seal is holding just fine.

Is that a Cummins brand seal? All I can find the Cummins that comes with a wear sleeve for the crank shaft

all that good canadian rust

Bob’s your uncle!

Nice setup that you can put the seal into the plate then install onto the engine instead of trying to install the seal right onto the back of the block. How many liters of oil do those 5.9 engines take?

By the hour. I completed a 9000 hour apprenticeship with 6 months of post secondary schooling at another heavy equipment shop. A couple years after I got my ticket, I quit and started a construction company because I wanted to build my own house and shop. I swung a hammer in the summer and turned wrenches in the winter, mostly for the same customers. I bought my service truck the same year I built our house. I started getting to busy though so I dropped the construction. I'm busy enough in the shop now that I sold the service truck. That wasn't a tough decision as most calls were after hours and took me away from my family. I stuck with mechanics because I find it more challenging mentally and less challenging physically.
