I had removed the transmission last week to both adjust the linkage and to replace the rear seal and bearing. I did not want to take the case apart and in one of the recent posts, John Z mention a tool that would allow you to change the seal and rear bearing while the tranny was still in the car. I located the tool on E-bay and although my tranny is out of the car, I left the shift on to show it can be done .

My old slip yoke had 300,000 miles on it and it shows it.



My new slip yoke and balanced drive shaft



The tool to extract the rear bearing , with seal removed



Close up of tool



Rear Bearing , the tool slides in just like a yoke



I use a hose clamp to compress flanges of tool , edges grab bearing



Use wrench to extract bearing , bolt pushes on tail shaft , pulling bearing



Bearing pulled out





Can be done with tranny in car and not taken apart
