Default td rear main seal
Hi I have 99 td xj it has rear main seal leak. I recently replaced main seal and one of the o-rings as I could only see one when I pulled it apart. According to repair manual there should be one more. My question is where exactly it is. A picture would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

There is 3 o-rings
There is 2 behind the backing plate, One is around the cam and the other is around the outside of the rear main housing, and the 3rd one is in the lip on the flywheel.

Can't help with picks sorry

The top seal is your cam and the larger one will be your crank. These are behind the engine adapter plate for your gearbox and you will need to pull your starter out as well to get this plate off. Use some permatex on the seals as well to make sure they dont come out.

Thanks for your replays. Should have done more research before. Now I have to pull the gearbox off again.
