Noticed the other day that the tranny started slipping. Added some fluid the other day and it started slipping again today. Grr, so I looked for fluid leaks and it seams to be coming from the very back of the tranny. The driveshaft has some red moisture, along with the exhaust and exhaust bracket. Seems I'll be doing a tail shaft seal. Anyone else done this? Is it very tough? Will I need any special tools (other than the tranny lift) to perform this? TIA all.
