5. FAQ

Q: What common mistakes cause early failure?
A: Skipping thorough cleaning leaves grit that damages the seal lip or prevents shims from seating flat. Installing the oil seal crookedly or with the wrong tool can deform the lip, causing leaks immediately. Using the wrong shim thickness leads to incorrect bearing preload, resulting in wear or overheating. Twisting the O-rings during installation creates weak points that fail under pressure.

Q: How long will these parts last when installed properly?
A: With clean lubrication, correct clearance, and proper installation, the oil seal and O-rings can last 5,000–10,000 operating hours. The metal shims are designed to last the life of the assembly unless damaged during removal.

Q: Can I reuse old parts from the previous kit?
A: The steel shims can only be reused if they’re completely undamaged and still within thickness tolerance. The oil seal and all O-rings must be replaced with new ones. These rubber parts develop permanent compression set and hidden wear after being installed once, making them unreliable for reuse.

Q: Can I reuse any parts from the old kit?

A: The metal shims can only be reused if they are completely undamaged, free of bends or scratches, and their thickness is still within specification. The sealing components, including the central ring and all O-rings, should always be replaced with new ones. These rubber and composite parts experience compression set and hidden wear after being installed once, making them unreliable for reuse.

Q: What common mistakes lead to early failure?

A: Poor cleaning leaves debris that damages the seal lip or prevents the shims from seating flat. Installing the oil seal unevenly or with the wrong tool can damage the lip, causing leaks immediately. Using the wrong thickness shim results in incorrect bearing clearance, leading to excessive wear or overheating. Installing the seal backwards means the lip won’t hold lubricant in properly.

Q: How long can these parts last if installed correctly?

A: With proper installation, clean lubricant, and correct clearance settings, the oil seal can last 5,000–10,000 operating hours, while the metal shims will typically last the life of the assembly unless they are damaged during service.

Q: Can I reuse the old shims?

A: While the shims themselves don’t wear out, it’s best to use new ones if possible, especially if they are bent, scratched, or have been deformed during disassembly. Reusing old shims can lead to incorrect clearances if they are damaged, so always inspect them carefully before reuse. The oil seal, however, should always be replaced with a new one during service.
