Hello,
Can anyone tell me what kind of job it is to replace the Output shaft seal? I'm pretty sure that's where it is leaking from and there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of documentation on it Even in the CD Manual. Please, if anyone has done it, let me know what kind of job it is and if there is anything else I should replace at the same time.

Thanks,

Kodiak

I have just completed this job on my "spare" tranny. Remove the rear nut (may be 30mm deep socket or the "special" socket). There was a pic posted earlier this week and it showed how one individual on here made the special socket - pretty easy. Anyway the nut turns counterclockwise as you are facing the rear of the tranny. Now the output shaft just pulls straight off - you may need to encourage it with a rubber dead blow hammer. Remove/replace the seal. Make sure you lube it up properly. Re-install the ouput shaft and bolt everything back together. Pretty straight forward job. I do not remember what to torque the nut to.
