Replacing rear main housing gasket

I replacing not just the rear main seal, but the gasket behind the housing as well. Does the oil pan gasket need to be replaced as well?

Thanks,
Dave

Re: Replacing rear main housing gasket

You're gonna have to drop the pan to get at the rear seal, so you might as well replace it. Chances are you won't get the old oil pan gasket out in one piece.
