For the pre magnums I'm not sure what is required. But I suggest you try the online manuals we have listed in the FAQ in this section.

I did mine a couple weeks ago. You would only have to loosen all the caps if you can't get the top half of the seal around the crank shaft. I didn't have to loosen any.
