Re: minor leak
nope, can be done in car.
Drain tranny, remove shift linkage, remove dust boot. Put tranny into 2/4/R by shoving the shift shaft inwards.
Put catch pan under the shift shaft seal, drive seal out with a slotted screwdriver and a hammer, wait for the draining to stop.
Apply a little silcone (SilGylde is what I use) to the seal and drive it into the case with a socket and hammer. I use a 9/16" 12 point Craftsman deep well for this.
While this is easy to do on the work bench, it will be harder under the car.
Use a new dust bellow.
