i believe i used a 34 or a 36mm socket, just get the seal in as much as you can then put the socket over it then start tapping it with a hammer

Clean up the axle opening of the tranny real good, put some RTV on the outside edge of the seal. The take a small piece of wood, like a 1x2 and slowly tap it into place moving around it in a cirular pattern on every tap. Just get the seal flush with the tranny case.
Then be sure to lube your axle end where it rides on the inner edge of the seal.
