Default RE: how to remove rear main seal??

I've tried a lot of different RTV silicone's and the Motorcraft has always been the best in my opinion, you can get it a the Dealer. As for the seal, look at the plate and you should see some telltales of where the old seal was,the back side of the sealshould be about 1/4" - 9/64'sbelow the surface of the plate to leave room for the slinger which DOES go on the crank after the plate is installed, good luck.
