Any tips on oil seal replacement before I go to town on my car this week?

[Sagaris]

I am doing all new trans seals, new rear main seal, possibly diff seals.

Are there any tips and tricks other than making sure to not be an idiot and scratch up the seal bore and to remember to put new oil on the seal to help drive it in?

I have replaced a few seals on a car before but that was about 10 years ago and I want to do the best job possible .

Get some sets instead of using random things to drive the seals in. Also, use a nice deadblow. Some seals can benefit from some anerobic loctite. Just only use that on metal to metal mating surfaces.

I used pelicans advice for the rear main, however I used hylomar, which is available at advanced auto, as opposed to the curil-t recommended in the pelican article. From my research its pretty much the same thing.
