Transmission Front Seal Kit
 

1 Attachment(s)
Installed this kit from Snyder's today p/n A-7112-S.

The instructions didn't say you had to be ambidextrous and have long, thin, strong fingers.

Best tool combination for the bolts: 3/8" drive 5/8" socket, 3/8 male x 1/4" female adapter, 1/4" drive ratchet.

Changed the grease fitting on the t/o bearing to modern type while I was there.

Good on you if you did that through the inspection cover hole. :)

Yes, through the inspection cover hole. Removed the top part of the transmission. That made it easier.

It is more difficult, but can be done through the inspection cover. I held the bolt with a long handled magnet,and started the threads with my fingers. Worked OK, but was not an easy install.

PATIENCE!

It can be done, just do not rush the job.

I did it on my Tudor with out removing the trans top.

I did remove the front seats which made life a lot easier.
