I very much doubt there is ANY engine that you can replace a rear main seal without detaching gearbox..... |

On some cars you can change the clutch without removing gearbox if i remember correctly, but ya have to take box out to replace rear main. Its a piss easy job. |

Peice piss to do mate.... All bolts are easily accessible... Wont take long at all..they are simple as to work on. Will be easier with transfer case out.. its only really old school cars that have rope seals.. Not alot of people know about them.. I have only come across one in the 7 years I have worked on cars.. And that was on a 1976 fairlane |
