Default Re: Rear Main Seals

Having soaked the graphite seals in oil should not be a problem. However the graphite seals will move in the mount since they are so slippery. Did the Fel Pro set include the small dowel pin with the graphite seals? If so its important to add this pin into the center of the aluminum seal mount. The pin which pierces into the outer surface of the seal helps keep the seal from moving.
