I just noticed when i look under the car and shift from park to reverse, then to drive and reverse it drips transmission fluid from the tail. I know my tail shaft seal is bad but i was wondering can i change it myself or will i need a shop to do it???

anyone?

Wow, nobody responded to this?
Drive it up on ramps or something. Get the car up in the air. Use the e-brake, and chock the front tires, etc.
Remove the drive shaft. Buy/rent a seal puller, or use a screwdriver and some creativity. Just yank the old seal out.
These are common seals, most autoparts shops should have one in stock. Make sure you have a socket to drive it in place with, or buy/borrow a suitable one. I'm guessing like a 2" socket, or something pretty huge that you probably don't have already.
Lube the new seal up, and hammer it on with the socket. Don't tap it around the edges, or it'll leak.
Just like the timing chain seal, pinion seal, etc.

ok thanks for the imput. I was told that you needed a seal compressor so it would be better to have a shop put it in but i dont want to spend the 250 bucks they quoted me. I will get on it this weekend and let you know how it went.

I've never even heard of a seal compressor. I wouldn't sweat it.

Wow. $250 seems excessive. I had a used 700r4 installed (new front and rear seals, new gasket and filter as well that I provided to them) for $150 cash to a shop owners kid. He did it after shop hours
Like I said, just to have a new seal put in seems like a ripoff
