Default Every Tech should have this LS Timing cover Alignment Tool!

AlignIt Tools are to designed to align the Timing Cover & Rear Main Cover and install the Seals on all LS base engines. :thumbs:

Whether your a Pro or a Do Your Own Repair kind of guy, here is a simple but very effective tool to help you make
easy work of installing your LS1-2-3-6-7-9- LQ4-LQ9- 5.3-6.0 Timing and Rear Main cover and seals. Works with all LS based engines!
The AlignIt tool gets the timing & rear main covers centered perfectly with the crank and installs the seal in seconds! Check out the videos.
Having the seal centered accurately with the crank minimizes the chance of seal leakage.


Buy more than one of the AlignIt Tools and save!

Default rear main seal pan on 5.3 chev

I have taken the rear main seal pan off and bought the new seal and the gasket for the rear main seal pan, but not the gasket that seals off between the top of the oil pan to the bottom of the rear main seal pan. Do I have to buy a oil pan gasket set???
Today I ordered the aliment/install tool, hope to get it in a few days.

Thank you for your business, Biker!
You should be able to just apply sealant in the corners where the Rear Main cover and oil pan meet. Then use the AlignIt tool and snug everything down and then install the seal like the video shows.

Ok, but there is no gasket on the top of the oil pan where the bottom of the rear main seal pan mates to the top of the oil pan. Looks like the gasket that comes in a pan gasket set is (just guessing)about 1/64th of a inch thick. I guess enough gasket maker (permatex) would work, just wanting to make sure I won't have any leaks. Thinking about making a gasket to fit.

Sorry for late reply. where the oil pan gasket and the rear main cover gasket meet is where the sealant goes..
