[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 49602, member: 82"] You will need to drain the oil first, as the bolt holes are rather low. You will need to remove the drive motor, i doubt you will have enough space to slide the carrier and motor to the side and get the new gasket in place. Personally, i would take the old one off, get some automotive silicone and coat the gasket with glue and put it in place. I did this on a 751 that i had the carriers off, it didn't leak a drop. The thing you need to keep in mind if you do it this way is to get the carrier in place and chains on pretty fast. You need to adjust the end to end location so the slack in the chains is the same front and back. Master links can be bought from most bearing shops, or at least they can get them in for you. Not sure what one you need, i don't fully understand the way the measure chain. [/QUOTE]
