Using a chinese finger trap to pull this seal into place is a @$#*% of a job.
I can understand why someone would want to cheat and only do the bottom half. Either do it right or not at all.
From my understanding, the newer type modern seal is a bteer option but that is a case of doing it while it on the stand, otherwise you are dropping the crank right out.
