Input shaft seal leaked and oil soaked the clutch. So yesterday I took the transfer case(208) and the tranny out. I and gonna put a whole new clutch and flywheel slave cylinder and throwout bearing in. Also my rear main is seeping so I am gonna replace that as well. Anything else I should do while its out? Thanks in advance

It might not be a bad time to look over the transfer case and tranny for anything that might need to be done. Otherwise, sounds like you've got it covered with the rear main and the full clutch kit.

Have the flywheel resurfaced if it looks blistered. I would also consider doing the rear main oil seal if it looks like it needs it.

Be sure to change the pilot shaft bushing while you are in there, I got a AC Delco clutch kit off rock auto for cheap. Interesting fact about the flywheels, you can buy a brand new one at NAPA for a little more than the cost of re surfacing the old one. I too would recommend the rear main seal while you are in there.

my only issue with those flywheels that are just over the cost of a resurface is think about what you are getting...
the offshore stuff is scarey.
