Default leaking tranny

can anyone tell me what seals are replacable on a trannie? my si trannie has a fluid leak, and im not sure what seals are possible culprits.

i know its the trannie and not the engine thats leaking, and its not the drain or refill bolts that are loose or improperly sealed. any advice will be greatly appreciated. thanks.

If you see fluid on either axle-then the chances are good that the shaft to case seals need replaced. This is a common issue when the shafts are pulled out and reinstalled. Some people are not real careful and the seal can be cut.

im pretty sure thats what it is then, and i know the axles were removed by the previous owner. do i have to crack open the trannie to replace those seals, or can i install them just by pulling the axels?

thanks to everyone that responded, i really appreciate the help.

You can easily get them out by just pulling the axles.
