3 speed gasket question - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I have a 3 speed in my 72 c10. The rear seal (were the small rear piece of trans bolts to main housing) is leaking like a siv. Going to replace the seal question is will I be able to just pull drive shaft out and do in the truck, or will the trans need to come out?

IIRC it unbolts and slides back. You need to drain the fluid first and pull the speedo gear out. Emergency brake cable may be in the way a bit too.
