Ok guys I have searched everywhere. Is there a write up on changing the rear main seal in a 09’+ 5.7 4x4?

I have a steady leak coming from the trans inspection plate that is dripping on my driveway. I think it may be rear main seal.

1- Can I do this myself?
2- Do I have to drop the trans?
2- Anything else I should check while doing this?

You have to pull the trans and transfer case and flywheel flex plate. The seal is a one piece round seal that comes off the back of the crankshaft. It is a very difficult job if you have never done one before..
