Rear main seal replacement help
I'm in the middle of replacing my clutch and after taking off the flywheel bolts I noticed they had oil on them, it seems easy to install (pry off, tap in) but I did a search and on one of the threads it talked about how you are suppose to have everything aligned (oil pan and cover) is this true?

I didn't take my rear cover off. I just pried the old one out and tapped the new one in. Make sure you get the updated part # because it seals up differently. I used some type of sealing compound on mine just incase. I know it says to put it in dry but I don't see why putting a little gasket sealer on would hurt anything. It has not leaked 6 months later and took less than 2 minutes to change.
