[QUOTE="97White'nSilver, post: 1401752, member: 14646"] I had my truck swapped from an auto to a manual at a local shop and when I got it back it was very loud and the truck shook quite a bit. The owner of the shop told me this was normal because of the single-mass flywheel I added so I went with it. This week after about 2000 miles on the swap I started a vacation to Oregon from montana. About 10 hours in we pulled into a gas station and the truck was covered in oil. It was about 2qts low and leaking from the rear main seal and I was an hour from a friend that I could take it to. At this point the starter needed to be hit with a wrench to start the truck and the usual rattling from the trans was louder so I limped it at 35 to the house and left it for the night. It was towed to a local shop my friend recommended and they drop the trans found dirty fluid with metal flakes, the pilot and throw out bearings were exploded and the rear main seal was destroyed. The flywheel was wobbling at idleast so with the trans out the shop bolted a new flywheel on and the wobbling continued making them think the crankshaft is bent. Tldr: auto to manual swap done by shop, truck was louder on return but shop said was normal, 2500 miles after swap rear main let go and the crankshaft is bent. What I want to know is what could have caused this, given that I am well under 300hp and haven't been railing on the truck that hard, no sled pulls or drag racing. [/QUOTE]
