[TR] Subject: rear oil seal TR3 In Place

[Catpusher at aol.com]

Randall, always a pleasure to hear from you.  The time I did it with  the 
flywheel in place was on the race car with an alloy flywheel that might have  
had a little extra room. We may have shortened the set screws and perhaps  
removed the crank thrust washers. Not ideal for the timing chain tensioner,  
but we made the race.
 The last time was on a street TR4A, and the gearbox and flywheel  had to 
be removed.  I might take a couple of images and produce an article  if there 
is enough interest. Tony D might post it on his site.

I'm having a hard time  visualizing this : How do you get the bolts out (and
back in) of the upper  half of the seal, with the flywheel in the way ?
