It's right at the end of the tranny where the driveshaft enters. I just ordered a seal,But i was wondering if the seal was a simple install?

It's not tough at all...
The hardest part is probably gonna be removing the bad one.
Once it's out, tap the new one in with a smooth faced hammer.

If you have modified your truck so that the drive shaft orientation has been modified from stock, you are probably going to ruin what ever seal you put in unless you modify your drive shaft to compensate for whatever slamming you do.

Ya it was leaking when i bought it....Previous owner halfassed everything. Now it's all done right so i figured to put the new seal in.

It came out pretty easy! And the seal didn't look bad at all.... (besides the dings i put in it).

You where so right Neptune! The previous owner of the truck used the wrong seal. I picked up the new seal tonight(had to order it) and it was a totally different seal........
