My tailshift linkage cover plate is leaking a lot on my '70 /6. It appears warped and I'm guessing no replacement part is available. Chances are used plates are warped as well? Am I forced to fab a new one to guarantee a leak free tranny?
I'd drop dr evil a pm before fabbing one up (not that I have those skills or tools) he may have what you need, at the very least he'll know more about it than most
are you sure it's the plate...may be speedo unit just above it leaking
Speedo, is the most likely. Let me McMark has some improved double seal drive shaft bushings as well as myself.
Take a phot Ben.
I would get a new output housing from 914-rubber or McMark that has been machined with a second groove. I put one on Sandys car. Fixed the leak. I also installed a new angle drive. I had the end cap pop off exposing the cable gear. The gear backed out and disengaged the cable. couldn't figure out why the speedo quit..
Looks above the plate. Agree with Rick.
If you end up needing a plate, I can hook you up. I also have free seals.
Cool, I hope we are all correct in believing that is the issue. When you take the old one out, feel around in the bore for galling, burs, nicks and such.
