Difficulty of replacing main seals?
Any idea of how difficult it is to replace the main seals in the '83 2.8 v6?
Pretty sure my rear main is leaking oil...

You'll need to pull the trans, and flex plate to replace the rear main in car.

$1.50 on the o-ring, and a couple hours of pain and suffering to get the damn dizzy nut and hold-down back in, and the leak is stopped.

Thank you.
