You gotta pull the drive shaft out, some transmission fluid will drain a little...Then just pull out the seal and install a new one....Make sure you top the transmission fluid up by the Check/fill plug on the passenger side of the transmission... [patriot]

Just replaced mine last night. Of course it was a piece of cake since thet tranny was already out of the car to replace the clutch.

The seal was $10. Pry the old one out with a screwdriver. Tap the new one in. I used a piece of PVC pipe over the seal and a hammer on the PVC pipe to tap it in. It was over in minutes.

As Black94 5.0 said - Drop the drive shaft. You'll need a 12 point 12mm socket or wrench for the drive shaft to rearend bolts. Make note of the two yellow dots on the drive shaft at this connection. You'll want to reinstall with those marks lined up again.

Sean.

Pry the old one off with a screw-driver, hammer the new one in gently/evenly and your done. I've done 2 of them
