About This Product
This starter shaft oil seal from James Gaskets is a critical replacement part for 1989 to 1993 Dyna, FXR, Softail, and Touring models. It is designed to provide a secure seal where the starter shaft passes through the inner primary, preventing primary fluid from leaking into the starter motor or out of the housing. Replacing OEM number 12053, this seal is built to handle the high-torque environment of the starting system. While often overlooked, a failing starter shaft seal can lead to messy leaks and potential damage to electrical components. Using a high-quality James Gaskets replacement ensures that your primary remains sealed and your starter stays dry during operation.
