Welcome to the site Dan. I would tell you to ask your question in the right section but we don't really have one for a Starfire, maybe the restoration section but owell.

Last time I changed a rear main seal it was on a F 700 water truck. Drop the drive line and use a seal puller to pull the old seal out, then get a piece of pipe or something that is hollow that is the same size as the seal and push the seal in. Give it a few small taps with a hammer and you should be good to go.

cool..thanks. and yeah i didnt look very far on the list of forums.
