Pick one and do it TODAY, not tomorrow.

I will agree....the KDP fix is not that hard but if you do the tab method it does help to have a few specialized tools. I had a buddy do mine and Im glad I didnt attempt it myself. Installing the new crank seal into the timing cover is a bit tricky.

BTW, if you take it to a shop - this is also a good time to have the timing bumped up since the timing cover is already off the engine.

FYI..the seal kit I got from Cummins NW included everything to do the job, and the seal pilot tool makes a dandy seal installer as well. The plastic sleeve is a must too. It is DRY seal, so don't give it an oil bath and make sure the crank is nice and dry.
