Just did this on my 87, the job is not that bad (assuming it is leaking at the rear, very common, yes). Read the FAQ, it covers what you need to know. Be armed with a fresh can of spray gasket remover, the gasket between the tailshaft housing and tranny is thick and tough, and it is stuck to the tranny like glue... hardest part of the job.
Total parts cost: $12.00 (FCPG), you need what they call an "extension housing kit", it contains a new gasket, bushing and seal.
