rear main oil seal changed

Rear main oil seal changed. It was easy until we had to bolt on the box. PITA.
Gearbox out. We managed to brake the oil drain plug - was overtightened, so decided to take it out with oil in it. BIG mistake - won't do that again. It seems that it had too much oil in the box and it got spit out from breather, messed up the looks.


Pressure plate, clutch disc and flywheel - out. All parts are OEM. I guess either it never was changed, because pressure plate has very bad scratches made by release bearing.


Rear main oil seal - cleaned and changed. I can tell that it was changed some time ago: seal carrier scratched (outer part), not genuine nissan part used.


Everything got cleaned and degreased. Box plate, flywheel, clutch disc and pressure plate on, gearbox on.
