Cam/Crank seal replacement

It's about time to replace the front crank and cam seals on my 91 Legacy Turbo. Yes, I know this is the EJ20T forum, but I figured this would be the best place to start.

What do I need to do to replace the front seals, and what else should I replace while I'm down there? Thanks.

that's great advice coming from someone who has 13,000 miles between oil changes and needs new piston return springs.

I am confused. That is all.

Anyone with some intelligent input?
