I am replacing the clutch and I figured I would do the Rear Main Seal as well, even though I am selling the car, I would like the buyer to not have to worry about it, same reason I am doing the brakes as well.

I found a couple seals on Courtesy Parts, if I could get the P/N or a link to it on Courtesy's website, I would really appreciate it.

Thanks!

Hope that helps. This is for a 5.5gen as well, but I'm not sure if there are major differences between them.

 

If it isn't leaking, don't mess with it. If you try to install it the incorrect way (not removing the upper oil pan) you'll likely end up with a leak where there wasn't one before.

Besides, the RMS itself rarely leaks, it's mostly the half moon seal between the pan and retainer.
