Going to replace my front seals soon. This tip looks neat. What do you guys think?

I wasn't too big on the screwdriver to pry it out technique.

Looks good to me. I was a bit concerned until he showed how he filed the point off the screw.

Yep. I tried it and it worked perfectly.

I tried installing the crankshaft front seal and unfortunately broke the rubber because I wasn't putting it in straight enough. Ordered another seal but want to ensure I don't make that mistake 2x. I used the 38mm socket for the other seals and that worked great but it wasn't deep enough for this one. Any tips/tricks for installing that seal straight? I'm thinking about a block of wood with a deep hole that would fit over the crankshaft bolt and onto the seal.
