<VV> tranny fluid leak

[James Davis]

Yes, if that is the only problem.  The differential stator shaft also 
wears (that is the shaft that supports the torque convertor).  If it 
is grooved or rough, the new torque convertor seal won't last 
long.  If it is worn only on the top, it can be rotated 180 degrees; 
of course this required disassembling the differential.
