I have the gearbox pulled. How hard is it to replace the seals? Is it cheaper/ easier to replace the gearbox.

HI there,

If you just want to replace the external seals, this will not be a problem, the front seal is tricky and re fitting the torque converter can be a pain to get correct, if you want the internal seals replaced this is a job for a transmission specialist, if the trans is working ok, this will be a cheaper option than a new box.
