It walks through pulling the throwout bearing and carrier bearing, referencing parts manual letter codes (A through F), diagnosing an egged-out sleeve from bolt failure, and checking whether a previously replaced rear main seal was actually the problem. Best suited for owners already elbow-deep in a similar teardown, not first-time researchers.
Posted by the TheFritz423 channel, appears to be an owner or mechanic documenting their own repair work rather than a polished tutorial.
They thought the rear main seal they replaced last time was bad, but it turned out okay. The real issue was an egged-out sleeve from bolts that fell out.
The traction clutch sleeve got egged out where bolts fell out of the flange, all three bolts on the flange had come out.
In this teardown the carrier bearing looked fine, and the traction shaft also looked pretty good despite the sleeve damage.
