'74 2.0 Side Shift (but you knew that)
OK, finishing up on the tranny rebuild (Thank you Dr Evil @dr_evil ) and I am not able to remove the shifter Selector Rod seal..........   I have tried using a seal remover, screwdriver, long-thin drift from the other side (wrong angle), a pick, a hammer and the screw driver, all while being careful trying not to marr the side of the seal housing. It almost seems as if there is a metal washer pressed into the hold on top of the seal...........weird...... Any ideas? Experiences? Incantations? |

The Seal has been removed, Turns out that this seal (I am very certain the tranny case has never been opened before this) has a steel outer housing. Kind of like a bearing case.
I needed to deform and then pull it out........about 1.5 hours so I did not screw up the receptacle. Hole?    |
