Vortech v2 seal repair help!!!
- Thread starter 99'WhiteCobra
- Start date
its kind of a drive but I recommend going to GTR in Rancho Cucamonga. They are an awesome shop!
Are they charging to remove it from the car and then fix it? How much would it drop if you pulled it and then took then the unit?
im taking the unit off, just need someone to fix it and gtr sends them out to vortech need a shop here in LA or near. any info would help thanks...
Can’t you just buy the parts needed? Has to be easier than rebuilding a alternator or starter:shrug:

I just made a thread on how I replaced the seal on my vortech head unit. Look up my threads that I started and it will pop up. It has pics and everything that you need to find the parts. The seal will cost around 20-25 bucks for the viton seal and probably between 15-20 bucks for the seal that lookst like the vortech installed seal.
Chicago raw hide was bought by SKF and they dont make the 7mm deep seal but the 8mm seal will fit. That is if you want viton. Viton is just a stronger rubber and resist break down better than nitrile.
It took me about 20 minutes to take the case apart, knock seal out, clean, install seal and put the case back together.
I also did this with simple hand tools.
