I'm going to replace my clutch, clutch plate, release bearing, pilot bearing and rear main seal. I seen videos of this done, and I was wondering if my T45 transmission has a oil slinger installed after the rear main seal. If so, can someone give a site to order the oil slinger from? The manual doesn't talk about installing one, but if there's one there, I would like to install a new one. I really won't know until I remove the transmission, but I would like to have it on hand if I need it.

By your description, it sounds like you are asking abt an oil slinger inside the bellhousing? Our cars have a dry clutch, so no oil and no oil slinger. Is that what you are asking?

Were you asking about the seal retainer and spell check did you dirty? Reuse the old one...no need to replace it.

No, not the retainer. I was asking about the oil slinger, but thanks!
