Transmission Seals

[Arnold Hite]

Keith,

I've done this several times now. It can be done without too much
knuckle bashing but I do remember spending about an hour getting one
troublesome seal out. After cussing and pulling every tool out of my
tool box, my son came home from school. He reached in there with a
hammer and hooked the seal with the claw of the hammer and pried it out.
I believe I posted this technique a couple of years ago.
