So no RTV other than the rear main seal points and the timing cover mating surface ? Just the fel-pro gasket did the job ? I just picked up a '99 XJ

Hey man....quick question. I just realized after installing my oil pan gasket on my 2000 TJ, I didn't push the oil pan gasket up into the grove in the back next to the rear main seal. Did I need to do that, or do you think the gasket seated properly when I tightened down the bolts? Make sense? Thanks for your time, and you did a great job with your video. Chris

Nice video. My 01 TJ needs a rear main seal i believe. Did you have to unbolt the exhaust to remove the pan. Pretty sure I have to in order to remove my pan? I’ll be buying a new pan since mine is very crusty. Just got the jeep and don’t know it’s history. Putting a lotta luv into her right now

You do have to remove the exhaust header (“Y pipe”) to get the pan off. I was in a similar situation when I got mine a year ago. Put a lot of work in to get where I am now. Still going too. Great feeling when you tackle each job though. Check out my other videos and few free to ask questions. Glad to help where I can.

@@BurntOilGarage thx for the reply. Exhaust header meaning the manifold where it connects to the engine? Or down a bit where the header connects to the rest of the exhaust? Either scenario worries me due to the rusty bolts. So far the rear control arms and sway bar came off pretty easy. Front suspension is next. Rear main seal might have to wait till the spring but I’d like to know my plan of attack. Thanks again

Hard to say without seeing in person. What gasket did you use? Was all the previous gasket material completely removed and surfaces clean? Did the RTV get applied properly and have time to cure? Was the gasket somehow pinched or caught on some obstruction?

Another thought, when running the hardware down, always go around and do the corners first. Snug, like finger tight, then the centers then work your way around in a similar pattern (cross torque) going to final torque. This eliminates any misalignment or mismatched pressures when installed

Hate to tell you, but the Felpro gasket's back radius doesn't fit the main seal cap. Way too big. You can see that at the end of your video if you look closely. I used two Felpro gaskets and nether one fit properly. Bad design. They leaked very badly. Ended up using a Mahle gasket which fit properly. Good thing, can use the Felpro holding pins. You have good videos though. Just a bad product. Since you can't run your Jeep right now, you'll find out later.

I’m theory you could, although it would be big mess if trying to do it with the engine installed. On the stand, with the pan facing up, it would work. Still a mess though and when the pan has to be removed, a lot of work cleaning the surface to prep for next install. These fel pro gaskets are silicone and the install pegs are the cats meow.

@@BurntOilGarage oh yea.. try that with a cork gasket on the amc 360.. no 1 peice gasket for them... the cork turns to rock after just 2-3 years and its a lot harder to get off than rtv. Im actually debating using lathetring a layer of rtv on my 360 and putting a thick layer on the front and rear where the rubber like gasket would go.. versus that cork/rubber gasket that comes in 4 peices.. I did that on my 5.9 magnum intake instead of using the rubber front and back gasket.. i put a thick layer of silicone on, from a video i saw and no leaks. people also say well rtv can break off, yea well so can cork.. when i took my pan off, 70% of the intake tube was covered with broken rock like cork

You can put a small amount not around the hole but the silicone part just to help the gasket stick to the block. Let it dry for a couple hours then put the pan. It's a pita to try and align the gasket with the pan together especially from under the vehicle.

There are pictures floating around online that shows the bolt locations, shouldn’t be too hard to find. Also the hanger you mention, I think you’re referring to the strap that goes on the back near the flywheel? Not sure how the earlier years are, but I suspect they are similar and would have it. As for the leak, did you use a couple dabs of rtv at the corners where the oil pan meets the timing cover?

Realistically RTV silicone cures fast enough to be able to return to service almost right away. Depending on the type used, some say 90 min, some say 24 hours but that’s very conservative, especially for the small quantities used in this application. If time is of constraint, use the 90 minute and by the time you have everything back together, you will be ok.
