Is there any procedure / video out there for replacing the seals in the transaxle? I have done this on other transmissions but just looking for any tips and tricks for the 914.

Polish the crap out of the output flange seal section.

If you have pitting or a groove where the seal lip ran, try to offset the new seal to clean metal. An offset of .020 can work wonders.

I pack all of my seals with Stay Lube marine grease. I've found it 15 years later when I've taken stuff back apart. Stays forever.

I would clean the flange bolt and the threads it goes into with B12, remove all of the 90w and use a small dot of blue Loctite on the bolt.

You should be able to use two CV bolts and a prybar to lock the flange for torquing of the flange bolts.
