I just changed the front oil seal on my transmission. Pretty straight forward operation. I seated the new seal down to the bottom of the race using the old seal body as a driving plate in a vice. Squeezed in tightly, not a problem, no distortion. Put a fresh gasket on with some Hylomar and tightened up. My concern is the shaft on the transmission turns all too freely. Shouldn't there be a bit of a bind on it with a fresh seal. The spring is definitely on the seal lips. Lubed it up a bit.
I mean, it doesn't spin loosely, but it does turn easily (the splined shaft). It this normal?
