TH400 Front Seal

So I have my drivetrain all painted and ready to bolt together. I picked up my TH400 used for $125 and it had a shift kit, B&M deep pan and TC installed before I got it. I'm thinking I would be crazy not to install a new front seal before I bolt it to the engine, but I'm a little afraid to try it. I tried replacing one before and ended up screwing it up and the new one leaked too.

Any 'how to tips' for me? I know this is supposed to be easy, but I don't want to mess it up (again). I tried looking on youtube for a vid, but couldn't find one. Must be so easy no one bothers doing a video on it

I'm half tempted not to change it since the tranny has been gone through already, and I've already demonstrated the ability to screw it up. What do you guys think?
