nice write up jet just curious are the part numbers the same for a 1st gen

 

Not sure about that.sorry

 

Do you pull the Sleeve out once the oil seal is on the Crankshaft, or does it stay in?

 

It stays it is the new wear surface for the seal.

 

Thats what did wrong. I replaced one on a friends truck, it still leaks and that would be the prob. Great write up and awesome pics.

 

Thats some awsome info!!

 

Nice write up, have a few questions for you Jet. It looks as if the motor is still in the pickup, how did you remove the oil pan? Also why did you take the rear cover off to install the new seal? Just curious I am fixing to replace my seal.

 

what happened to this tread? im going to do my rear main tomorrow, and this was supposed to be a write up but im guessing all the info got deleted?
