Re: What did you do to your truck today.The 3rd chapter

Replaced the rear main seal and oil pan gasket. Had to contend with a snapped off bolt the PO left for me. Bought a right angle drill from Harbor Freight to access the hole because it was right above the cross member. Hammered a Torx bit into it and fortunately it unscrewed. I felt like I won the lottery when that happened. The PO also used RTV on the entire rear main seal, so I had to make a scraper to very carefully clean out the passageway above the crank.
