i thought you had discovered (in the "what have you done with your truck today" thread) a few days ago,that just a cooler line was leaking?
i would do one of these two things:
1.if the bushing hasn't walked.just replace the seal and put the trans back in.
2.if your going to pull the pump (not for the novice.well it is,but you better be willing to learn things the hard way lmao!) and install transgo shift kit parts in it,along with a new bushing)
well.there is a 3rd option and it's a wise one;
3.take the transgo kit and the trans - with pump left in place and say; here.put this kit and a new pump bushing in please.
if you do plan on pulling the pump,use extreme caution! if you try and pry the pump out,against that thin piece of the case you will ruin the whole transmission!!!!!
you don't need a slide hammer.you can pry it out but you need to first put a screw driver across the two main valve bodies you see,and then use that to pry against so no pressure goes on that thin cross piece.
AND!
make sure you have the trans standing on it's tail before removing the pump.
basically if you can frig up iv done it.
i've never broken the case though! iv been just smart enough,to avoid ruining the thing entirely lol.
