Just to add to this one auto or manual there still outside seals. Another tip is you can use a female pvc pipe fitting to make a seal installer works great a couple of bucks at home depot. You can do it yourself.

No need to take the tarnsmission apart to replace the seal you can do it yourself. You have to drain the transmission fluid to replace it. Also replace the spin on transmission filter.
