Well - I've hit a point where I now think I am in way over my head. I have done RMSs before on older 4.0s. It is easy.
I tore into my 2000 to replace it's RMS and, I have the "Wingless" RMS.
From what I see from searching on google - there are many, many different sets of procedures. No two of which are the same. That concernes me.
I saw one where someone put RTV directly on the bearing surface !?!?!?!? ... another one says to install the seal 30* off (which kind of makes sens). And yet more saying that I need a special oil pan gasket - but other posts saying the oil pan gasket to use is the one which I already have.
There is also some sort of dealer-only special sealant to use? This is what someone put on the bearing surface I guess?
Help!
