<VV> more input shaft seal

[N. Joseph Potts]

Potts to Pitts -
     I'll add that you SHOULD inspect the shaft in the bore of which the
input-shaft seal is installed. This shaft CAN get cracked, particularly if
someone pries across its internal diameter in an attempt to get the old
input-shaft seal out (don't do this, OK?). If it does get cracked, it WILL
leak gear oil no matter how new the shaft seal is.

Hey guys,

Thanks for the initial info.  It is always appreciated.  Is there  anything
specific to these two seals that I should no?  Thanks.
