rmsnoel Posted February 7, 2010 Share Posted February 7, 2010 I ordered an oil seal from toyota for a 4efe only to discover it was the wrong size. Terrible news at 4.30 on a saturday nite. It turns out my 99 SR engine has a 4efte crank meaning I needed a 4efte rear seal. I thought the toyota seal to local autostore and got a universal oil seal the same size only 75mm centre bore instead of 80mm So normal 4efe crank seal has 80mm centre bore and 4efte has 75mm centre bore. Dont quote me on this Im just sharing my saga.Seal from toyota was £40 and I bought both sizes from local autostore for £10 each just to be sure. Pictures and part numbers coming soon Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted February 10, 2010 Share Posted February 10, 2010 That's a funny one, do you think it came from factory like that then? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rmsnoel Posted February 10, 2010 Author Share Posted February 10, 2010 Yes quite a few 4efe will have fte stamped cranks. My other 4efes had 4e on them but this one outta a 1999 SR has fte cast into it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
