Rear Main Retainer Replacement? SR20 - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I bought a half finished sr20 swap that was leaking oil.

I dropped the tranny to replace the rear main seal, and noticed the previous owner had cracked the rear main retainer.

Can anyone confirm if this is the correct part number?

I've heard the FWD & RWD Retainers are different, the seals are the same, but the plate is different.

Anyone got one laying around I can buy?

I bought the replacement from courtesyparts. They looked it up in FAST and said it was the same part number for both.

I'll verify when it comes in and update this post. It was $43 + shipping

Yes that is the correct part number.
