    ?

    Your new transmission will come with a new/different seal.

    If you mean you're rebuilding it, then yes, replace it AND EVERY seal.

    Remove it using a seal remover or screwdriver/visegrip.

    Likely it's a used trans Andrew.

    I don't replace them unless they look beat up.

    Ah that makes sense.

    A seal costs about $5, I think it's cheap insurance given that you have to drop the tranny to replace it. The axle seals are easy to replace when in place.

    Personally, I would DEFINITELY replace it with a good quality OE seal. I would also make sure the snout on the TC is clean and smooth.
