Looks like my tranny sprang a leak. Does anybody know the oil seal p/n? Also - Can this seal be replaced from the outside and is there a special tool required?

Thanks in advance for any tips or advice you may offer!

"I bought the seal 4 years ago and had a look when I had the pan off changing the internal trans filter;

See the shaft at the far right of the photo ? Nearly halfways up ? That's the shaft it's gotta go on. I thought about removing the outer linkage, but it didn't seem like that was enough, but I'm no expert.
I've been well into a 727, but this job looked too ugly for me. One of those jobs where I could well F#@& it up so bad a slightly wet seal and a once a week drip would seem like nuthin'.
Here's a pic of the toothed plate it runs through, if you want to print these off and take the pics to a trans shop for an estimate;

Tell em' you want an internal filter change "and {yawn} while you're in there, how's about changing this?".
My leak never got worse, so I'm livin' with it until you pioneer this one for the rest of us

"I had to replace mine 3 months ago. I got mine from a transmission shop here in Orlando. Here's the number if you want call them. There are actually 2 seals on that shaft. One is for the TV Valve & the other is for the shaft. Alternative Transmission - 407-877-3664, maybe they will mail you one or can give you a correct part#. I went in & told the guy I needed the shaft & TV seals for an AOD & brought them back within a minute - knew exactly what I needed."
