    It is a sealed bearing, there isn't a normal seal. If you have to get a double sealed bearing just pry the inside one off. Yes the only way to change it on that model is to split the cases. The level for the oil is below that so a lot of oil shouldn't come out. I had that bearing go bad and was noticing shifting problems not oil spots on the floor.

    The guy is asking about the seal. Have you ever seen a sealed roller bearing? I know in Norton there is a ball bearing which is generally replaced with a roller for longer life but it isn't one which doubles as a seal. That is the only help I can see in your link as the case for 1988 and most likely 1987 won't allow one to use pullers like in that link.
