Seal replacement

[phantomgeo]

Anyone have any experience in replacing an oil seal on a bx-2200 engine? Need to do it and looking for some good information.

Perhaps mentioning which seal on the engine you are talking about would help in getting an accurate response, there are a few.

It would be the main oil seal on the front of engine. (Rear main seal?)

Front of engine is where the injection pump is, rear is where the starter engages.
Front and rear relate to the engine, not it's location in a particular piece of equipment.
If your machine has a reverse mounted engine, and the starter is at the front of the tractor, the seal at the front of the tractor would be the rear main seal.

Yes as I expected.

Yea, it's a relatively easy seal to change.
