Chris, the rear main seal can be changed with the engine in the car, as 
long as you can get the oil pan off. Figure on getting filthy burning up a full 
Saturday, and don't forget to drain the oil first! 
Y'all can laugh but a host of people have gotten so involved in the steps 
needed to change a rear main seal, they forget to pull the drainplug, and 10 
qts of oil weighs about 75 lbs extra! Add that to the 16-lb pan and you'll 
be in the shower for a while!
Good luck- J Deryke
