:confused: I have to replace rear seal in my 51 Hollywood, and have to do it while motor is in car. I have had this done for me in the past with not much luck. They leaked worse after I had them replaced. Which one works best, and any tips on replaceing would be helpful.

Thanks, HornetSpecial

    Walt here. To do the correct job go to Walt's tech book volume one to page 9. Or go to the WTN March-April 1996. Then go to volume two, page 11 or the WTN Nov-Dec 2005. There is no short cuts to this job and don't try packing the upper half for it will just leak worst. The correct way is a lot of work but results are better.
