> list, I know this has been discussed many times over BUT, a friend of mine
is restoring a TR2 and when he had the engine rebuilt he did NOT install
either of the new type rear main oil seals.
> Now that he has started the car it of course leaks
> Is it possible to install the newest type seal (the one that doesn't require
crankshaft modification) by dropping the pan and the rear bearing?????
> I would like to help him out as he has devoted a lot of time to this
restoration and it seems ashamed not to try and fix the leak.
