This is how I plan on installing this piston seal on my late model 440 Case. Perhaps a consensus from the troops as to my choice! CM

Looks to be correct installation to me. Heat up pan of water to make a little more flexible.

Better rethink that.its sharp edge facing oil not sharp edge facing lift pushrod. 50 some dollars better turn it correct.they are fun to install but your going wrong way

It goes around the piston, not beside it, and like said below, sharp edge to the oil.

There is no challenge in laying lying beside the piston. .And you have now been told 3 times you are wrong.

They're right, Chuck, installed that way, as the oil pushes against the seal it will collapse the seal and force its way between the seal and cylinder wall on its way to your diff. Turn it around so the oil pushes the seal against the cylinder wall, harder it pushes the better the seal. A few drops of dish soap in the hot water helps, and warm the piston also, but not so hot you can't handle it with bare hands.

I appreciate the comments, and I hope this helps others, when they get ready to perform the same task. CM
