Default Searched............is there a write up somewhere on replaceing the tailshaft seal???

Thanks guys, my M6 has a tailshaft seal leak. Just swapped out the shifter a few weeks back and actually thought the leak was coming from the stocker. It wasn't. I can see now that its the tailshaft seal itself.

Is there a sticky or writeup somewhere on replaceing the tailshaft seal? I searched and spotted reference to one, but never saw it anywhere.

We have the seal with the boot for $25 shipped. I don't like to use the ones from the parts stores as they do no have the boot on them. They give you the cheap one that will leak over time.

Thanks,
Amber
