Question What else?

Well, now that I have my tranny removed, and therefore, half the car apart, is there anything I should be replacing at this time to prevent cursing in the future?

On the list already:
Ball Joints both side, destroyed in disassembly
Exhaust gaskets and bolts
3 new exh. manifold studs where they meet the exhaust pipe (any hints on replacing?)
Oil pan gasket (leaking a little)
Tranny hose clamps, destroyed in removal


Also, how rubbery should the tranny mount be? It seems that mine is very jiggy, yet I see no cracks or other damage. Is that just the way it is?

Question

Is that where the oil leak is coming from? It seems to be coming from the back of the engine, I was just hoping that it was the oil pan and not the seal. So, how much work is replacing the seal?

its not so bad you just have to to remove the flex plate remove the old seal with a small screwdriver. grease the new seal and install make sure the seal is installed in far enough or it will just leak
