      Really? Dammit. Both of them? Or just the output seal? And from where, the shaft to seal joint or seal to bore joint?

      I hope by coating the outer edge of the seal with the curil-T any imperfections will be filled an sealed... Either way it wasn't really a big deal to do change the seals.

      EDIT: KACO is oem correct? That was the brand on the rear output seal I removed.

        Yeah that's what I read. But who knows. Kaco is oem, like 15 bucks for the rear seal. I'm not sure if the shifter seal is cheap.

          Damn. Thanks for the heads up. Wish I'd seen this earlier. Oh well. You'll hear about it here if it starts leaking anytime soon.

                            After a wash





                            Here is a better shot of the white lettering I added to the tires. I like it.





                            And a ghetto fabulous jack pad for lifting the car from the factory jack points under the front and rear end of the rocker panels. I bent those spots a bit in the past by lifting the car from there without some adapter. This is not my best work but it gets the job done so whatever.

                              Waiting on AC parts and some cluster parts. I will be installing AC starting this weekend hopefully. And whenever the cluster parts come, I'll pull it apart to replace the SI board batteries, a lightbulb, give the plastic a polish, and add some bling ;)
