Rear Main Seal Leak Destroy Clutch?? I had a rear main seal leak on my car and my clutch only lasted about 8k miles. The seal started leaking about 6k miles into the clutch. If that makes sense lol. Anyways I had a new LS7 clutch put in and the rear main seal fixed... supposedly. Now i still have some oil coming out of the bell housing and im guessing the rear main wasnt fixed very well. Do you guys think it will be a good idea to just get a new clutch disk and pressure plate when i have them fix the seal again?

My rear main seal went out and got oil on my textralia with 500 miles on it and had nothing but problems with it until it went out at 15k miles. Replaced it with a new textralia and everything has been perfect.
