If you have the right tools, 1 hour.

If not, a few hours.

Right tools = pulley puller, seal puller, and your basic mechanics set.

i did mine like 2 or 3 days ago...pretty simple job.

my fan was already off so i just needed to get the crank pulley off then pull out the old seal. it took me no more than 45 mins.

the hardest part was getting the old seal out!!

putting in the new one and the rest back together is cake and takes like 5-10 mins.

Remove fan, remove fan shroud, remove belts, remove pulley bolt, remove pulley. The seal can be removed gently with a large flat head screwdriver, mine came out with ease.

yep thats what i did. Unfortunately the idiot at the local autozone gave me the rear main seal, so i had to go switch it. Only to find out that AUTOZONE's front seals didnt fit. went to Nissan and got the OEM one for 11 bucks. PERFECT fit.

Congrats, pour yourself a beer and feel good that now you don't have to listen to the ol' lady yell at you about the oil spill you were previously leaving under your car on the driveway.

i'm in the middle of replacing my Seal, got the old one out and the new one in.

I used the old seal to place on top of the new one while hitting the seal in and It went too far back and setted against the back part of the hole where the seal goes in, Is thisokay? or do I have to have the seal flush with the opening of where it goes into?
