Suzuki V-Strom DL650 43mm Seal Pusher
Description
There are loads of seal pushers available but they all had issues I wasn't prepared to work around. Most of them are two piece - necessary for upside down forks but just an unnecessary complication for the V-Strom - or required support when printing. Some had insufficient clearance for the high lips on my SKF seals (much higher than OEM) and there was no pusher for the dirt scraper. So I designed this one. The small end works for SKF or OEM seals (I tested it with the old seal). The shape in the big end is to push the dirt scraper. Chamfers etc are designed so it prints with no support. I wasn't sure how strong it needed to be so I went all in and printed it in PLA-CF with 3 walls and 60% infill. As it turned out it didn't take any more than hand effort to push the seals in so I'm sure it would be fine in plain PLA. If anyone wants to adapt this for other sizes drop me a line and you can have the CAD files. I'd upload them but not sure what format people want.
