Ok I've gotta tko 500 tranny thats leakin at the rear seal. I'm wondering how to get the old one out. Autozone had a seal remove tool but I don't think it'll work cause of its bulkiness. Not much room to work because of the shaft size so i'm not even sure the screwdriver method will work. Is there a specialty tool that'll get it out or some other method to try?

pry the old one out with a flat blade screw driver and gently tap the new one in with a block of wood and a hammer.
