Are you talking the input to the transfer case or the front output of the transfer case?

It's a fairly straight forward job. You just remove the drive shaft, then the yoke. (It's just one nut) The yoke should slide right off, maybe a slight tap will be needed......nothing crazy though. The seal is a simple pry out and drive back in with a hammer. Rub some oil on the seal before reversing the process to reinstall everything.

Also the seal retainer can be removed(4 bolts) and you can change the seal then re-install. Mine's leaking on the 71. NAPA has the seal for under $15, autozone has it for a lot less. To me the hardest part is removing the front driveshaft, those 4 bolts are a pain to get to!

There's a seal in the adapter between the tranny and transfer case. Do a search or start a new thread there's some info on this here somewhere.

I just changed the seals in my adapter. There are 2 seals in the adapter, one on each side.
Yours will be either National or Chicago Rawhide seals. If you have a bearing supply house near you they can supply what you need way cheaper then NAPA or wherever. Same goes for any bearings. Same manufactures make most seals and bearings and they end up in different boxes for different outlets at substantial markups. Get old seals out by tapping gently with hammer and punch or something blunt. You can use a screw driver but be gentle because you will want to use the old seal to help install the new seal. Clean the adapter, lightly oil outside of seal and start to install by G E N T L Y tapping with small hammer (make sure seal is correct way) to get it started. Then place old seal over new and use it to drive new one into bore. This way, it helps to drive it in straight and more importantly you don't damage new one causing leak. As anyone who has done a lot of this can tell you, that will make you mad! It is easy to put a little dent or distortion in seal. For anyone doing seal and bearing work, use a place like Berry Bearing, Motion Industries, Bearing Headquarters, etc. They can cross reference any of this if you give them a number, or measure or take in a sample if you are close, and it will save quite a bit of money, especially on more expensive items. A good bearing supply person can help in other ways. Tech advice, what may have caused bng failure (if it's not obvious) how to install, etc. P.S. I can give you the Chicago Rawhide P/N of the seals I just installed but you might try to get yours out. I have a 350/205 adapter and they should be the same but this way you will have the proper seal in your hand and should be able to identify it. C/H will have some numbers, National doesn't but you can measure, etc.

Glad it helped. Anytime a person needs stuff for bearings, seals, etc they should use a bearing house if it's close. It helps save money. Those places can find a lot of parts in the world of power transmission. And that's what cars and trucks are. Power being transfered from the engine to the wheels.
