small transmission leak question

[joedee]

Hi,


Noticed after the car has been sitting for a couple of weeks that I am getting a couple of drips of trans fluid from the rear of the trans.I assume it is the rear seal where the drive shaft connect. How big of a deal is this to change? Car only has 55K miles on it so has done a lot of sitting over the years.
Thanks,
Joe

There is a pale yellow plug on the drivers side rear of the trans. The o-ring goes bad. Check that first

It's very possible that due to prolonged inactivity the tail shaft seal has dried out.

Thanks guys. I would assume either one of these are easy to change?
