I just recently replaced all these seals on my 1990 9000 CD with 140k. Its really not that bad of a job. I highly suggest using an air impact wrench to get the harmonic balancer bolt off. I did an oil change as I also replaced my low oil sensor o-ring and dipstick o-ring. I would guess you need to drain the oil for this job. I would change the oil pump o-ring, and the front main seal while you are in there. Use some spray adhesive to keep the oil pump o-ring in place before reassembly otherwise it can be a frustrating job. Scribe the oil pump gears before you remove them and install them exactly as you removed them. I used ari's advice and put the front main seal slightly ahead of where the old one was and have not had any leaks since replacement. Good luck.
