mcbrat Posted September 21, 2008 Share Posted September 21, 2008 a buddy of mine in town (not a board member) is trying to replace the input shaft seal on a j/y 5 speed before he puts it into his lifted 87 wagon. can this seal be replaced without cracking the tranny case? he's having difficulty removing the plate covering it?

torxxx Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 IIRC all 5 speeds have to have the cases split open. My buddy had that problem with the input seal leaking on a 91 legacy, and I could not find a way to get in there even with the plate removed because the seal sits back an inch or so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mcbrat Posted September 23, 2008 Author Share Posted September 23, 2008 that's weird. some posts are gone. GD answered the first one,then I replied.... the 5 spd d/r definitely needs the case cracked to replace the seal.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
