Couple of questions before I reinstall all the new clean things:
Do I need to put anything like a light brush of high temperature brake grease on the tranny shaft before reinstalling?
Do you recommend replacing the main output seal on the back of the block? I recall you saying it is very robust and holds up well. I do have an SKF seal on hand and will replace it if it is relatively easy to re and re.
It was very dirty behind the flywheel but I believe this was all dizzy pizz

Hard to tell if seal is leaking after you've cleaned it

Another oddity on my tranny is that I didn't have the block to tranny reinforcement braces (7026 and 7028 on the FSM Manual Transmission Section 7B) when I pulled my tranny.
Do you know if they are supposed to be there on an 89? I do have a 92 Sidekick parts car that I could pull them off of if they are important - especially considering I am often on rough terrain and pushing snow with my plow
