You will never have easier access to this O-Ring and it is simple to replace WYAIT. It doens't leak often, but if it does the tranny has to come out again.

Same for the O-Rings in the 2nd picture and the CV shaft sealing rings.

Also consider Seans suggestion.
i have resealed a few of these and 1 and 3 are the only seals i replace.

Also note if your getting a whine you might try to pick up a newer front pump thats where the 2 seals (1 and 3) go.
Put a smear of vaseline onto the bronze bushing behind the radial seal so the TC snout wont seize when the engine is started

Also consider replacing the vacumm modulator with the updated part and you should pull the trans to do this work
Stan:

OK, so, I'll replace 1 & 3 and also the 9's as Sean suggests. Already planned to do the bushing lube based on seeing your recommendation many times. I didn't know there was an updated vacuum modulator. I'll consider pulling the trans, but I've done as far as the TC bearings with the tranny inplace before with no problems.
