Replacing Torque convertor what else should be replaced with it?
I am replacing the torque convertor in my 700r4. Should anything else be replaced along with the convertor such as the Front Seal (torque convertor seal) etc...? My transmission was rebuilt around 45K miles ago and I am not experiencing any noticeable as of the last time I drove the car, although it has not been started for 1 year.

Thanks

Rear main seal is going to be new I am putting in a new engine and figured now would be the best time to replace the convertor since it will be easily accessible. Anything else?
