Anything else I should replace while replacing the Main Seal?

[Lyle Kilson]

I’m taking my 94 FZJ in to finally get my leaky main seal replaced. Is there anything else I should consider getting checked/replaced while they are pulling the truck apart to replace the seal?

Upper rear heater hard lines. Nearly impossible with the transmission in.

I agree. I assume you mean the REAR main seal.

Thanks man. I’ll put it on the list.

Yes REAR main

There is seal behind the torque converter for the tranny

Are you sure the leak is from the rear crank seal, or is it from the upper/main
oil pan rear arch area??

Upper oil pan arch seal renew

Oil pan arch seal project I tackled re-sealing the famous arch seal this weekend. This project is a little involved but fairly straight forward. While I had the engine raised, I took the opportunity to replace the motor mounts. I'm an ameteur so I'm sure there're more efficient ways to do...

What to do with transmission out?

I remember reading somewhere that there is an easy way to tell if it's the upper oil pan or the rear main seal. I have a leaky lower pan and a mysterious leak from the rear of the engine. I cannot find the post that described the difference between the leak though.
