mcfly94 169 Posted May 5, 2013 Its time for a new rear main on my car. What type of seal did the 84da have. I bought ACL gasket and seal kits previously and have the main seals left over from them. The rope type and then the 2 piece rear main seal. Can i use 2 piece instead of one piece? And how is it changed? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Polson 10,214 Posted May 7, 2013 This is 86DA, but when I bought a XF ute with T5 the block was 84DA and I'm fairly sure (may be wrong) that it had the same type of rear main as this: Thats about all I know of them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcfly94 169 Posted May 7, 2013 is that one piece? i have a 2 piece seal kit from an acl kit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Polson 10,214 Posted May 7, 2013 It was one piece yeah, only like $15 or something from Autobarn, what do two piece ones look like? The seal I replaced was one piece, and probably factory. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mcfly94 169 Posted May 8, 2013 slighlty thinner than yours and cut in half to make 2 semi circles, been having a look at my seal and a chat to a few guys, i think i actually have a one piece seal! i hope so anyway, because they can changed with the engine still in! I have an orange seal in mine and looks to be one piece Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Schmoburger 12 Posted May 8, 2013 The motor in my Fairlane is an 84DA block from an early XF and it was an orange colored onepiece rubber seal.... And yeh was like 12 bucks at Autobarn. 1 mcfly94 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
