But im a fucking dumbass. I was putting in the front main seal, and I noticed that one side went in further than the other, so I just hit the other side alittle bit to compensate, but I hadnt noticed how far back the seal went. So, everywhere ive seen, the seal is supposed to be flush with the face. I held a crush washer next to it for size reference, its about 2mm further in then it supposed to be. My question is if this is ok or not, or should i get another seal and restart?

They are pretty cheap and they are a pain to do once in the car. I have change one in my engine bay fml what a day EDIT: I'm sure you know it but you can use the front main seal out of the SER Edited by bdp07, Feb 10 2010, 06:41 AM.
