			 How do I get the input shaft seal out of the transmission?  The input shaft gets in the way of applying an leverage.

			 QUOTE  screw a sheet metal screw into the seal and use pliers to pull it out. or a slide-hammer..... Ive done that more than once (IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) That's how I did it today. The "seal" actually is largely metal - drill a pilot hole (being careful not to drop metal shavings into the guts of the tranny) then insert a screw on your slide hammer, bang, bang, and it pops right out: ![]() Installing the new one is as simple as finding a piece of pipe the right size to use as a drift: ![]() Per Dr. Evil in a different thread, you just need to get it in far enough that the release bearing guide tube can be installed flush.
