I just replaced my oil pan gasket on my 98' RR 4.0. Seams OK but now I noticed some oil leaking down the back of the transmission bell housing. I comfimed it is oil. Any ideas?

Rear Main seal... normal leak.
Options, spend alot of money and fix it, or just add oil as needed.

A real PITA, not fun. You would have to remove the transmission/Transfer case to get to it, then also remove the seal without tearing anything else up. About a 6 to 8 hour job for someone who knows what they are doing.

Which means, for most of us, 12-14 hours, not including the trip to the emergency room to reattach a finger, and the multiple calls to buddies to come back and help get the transmission/TC out of there, and multiple trips to Home Depot to buy enough cinder blocks to lift the truck up high enough to....well, you get my pointjoey said:
