Rear Main Seal repair

**eddave** · 05-07-2009, 04:21 PM

Hi guys,

Just joined the forum today. Hoping you'll hear from me often. Got a '00 Silverado with the 4.8 and 151k on it. It's at the dealer now getting the rear main seal replaced. I've been driving with it this way for at least 10k.

Any other things I should have serviced or replaced while I've got the entire back of the engine apart?

Thanks much!

Front trans seal is about the only thing that you have to have th trans pulled from engine to replace besides the rear main seal. Also would recommend having you torque converter fluched with having that many miles.
