Yes, Bill, I did think of it and I even bought the RH seal (the cheaper 
one). The 122mm LH seal is $65 alone. What about the tail seal at the 
drive shaft? Do they ever leak? What's the list consensus or replacing both?
Also, what else do I have to replace once disconnected? The triple 6 
square bolts on the dive shaft? Does the exhaust need to come off 
completely, or can it be set aside? Any more pointers? Thx in advance!
