Help 49 oldsmobile Big Six
MY 1949 olds 76 Hydro-matic is leaking very badly from the front main seal( i Think) if i neet to swap it out what will bolt up to the 257 6 Cyl? are all the Hydro-matics from that era the same?

I agree. If the leak is the only problem, carefully remove the transmission, replace the seal properly, and re-install it. It should provide years of good service. I've done the job before.

I guess Im just worried about messing with the trans. The service manual shows the tear down and i dont have any of the special tooling. is it easy to change the seal? I found a kit on eb** that has all the outer gaskets and seals for $70.
