Thread: Does the oil pan have to be removed to do the rear mail seal?

Hi, I have a 1997 Sentra with se-r swap. It uses a roller rocker block and head. I very recently changed the front main seal while the timing cover was off and now it's bothering me to think about if it was be the same thing doing the rear seal. I don't need a rear seal now. I don't need a clutch now. It's just been on my mind I wonder how it gets done and if it could have been done at the same time as the front seal. Actually it couldn't have but I'm wondering, does the aluminum oil pan of off to change the seal?

Thanks!!

no you just pry it out and replace flush with case as all seals. obviously as you said the trans and flywheel has to be off..lol
