Need to replace rear crankshaft oil seal. What is least amount of work: drop engine/transmission, or support engine in car and remove transmission?

Did you remove all four bolts or nuts from the bell housing? Never seen one not come loose

Yes I did, but I think this engine has been under water or something similar... I bought it from Copart and they dont always give you the whole story...

Bolts is away, starter is away - I can get a 5mm gap between bell housing and trans but thats all...

Have gone crazy with WD40 and will wait and see...

Thanks anyway
