Rear stationary removal
Hi guys so my 13b is out of my car for some upgrades.. And am replacing the rear oil seal.. Because of an oil leak I had at the rear. Should I remove the rear stationary gear to also change the o-ring to play it safe. If so how can I go about the removal?? With out moving other parts
I know they can be hard to remove with out hitting it with a hammer from the other side.

the only gotcha with this is that if the E shaft moves while the gear is out, the apex seals will fall out, and you get to pull the engine apart. not that this has ever happened to me, but that is the risk.
once you have the engine in a safe place, loosen the 6 bolts for the gear and take it off. if you need to pry with something, be gentle.
clean gear, replace o ring, and put it back. occasionally they need a little tap from a hammer to pop back in.
tighten the bolts, and done.
