automatic transmission tail shaft bushing 200 1990

I'm about to do mine soon, my searching of the archives found 2 issues to be concerned about...

1. the gasket between the main tranny body and the extension housing (tailshaft) is usually left on the main tranny body side... scraping it off and cleaning that side up while it is on the car is the right thing to do but also a p.i.t.a.

some have suggested just leaving the old gasket on if it still looks good (what I hope to do) and perhaps adding a thin bead of gasket sealer.

2. Once the tailshaft is out .... pulling the bushing out and pressing in the new one takes either a special tool or some handiwork... check the archives for those details.

what has told you that your tailshaft bushing needs replaced? I'm still only very suspicious that mine needs replaced and I'd rather not deal with it without confirming that it does.
