There is a large bolt, more like cover; that covers the set of detent balls and springs on the I-plate. I might have overtorqued that bolt and it felt like the mag was yielding. Have you seen this bolt or cover as a source of leaks in your experience?

I have been fortunate not to have come across or to have caused one to strip, but it is possible. Why did you have the cover off? Best check the threads and then leak test it with some oil in the case and a drive. I dont have the tq specs in front of me at the moment, but it isnt very high.
Eek, I hope it works out. Run it until it gives you an answer on whether it will work or not If not, send it to me and I'll put another plate in for ya
I wish I had my camera when I pulled mine apart but found a few good photos in Dave Hunt's rebuild thread. Still wondering if this plug could be a potential leak?
At the sametime, I'm looking for a used Intermediate plate or core tranny to replace mine...Ya got one to sell me cheap?
Here is the plug that I over torqued, wonder if I can't just permatex the crap out of it???
The asshat PO's mechanic had substituted this forged washer and rollpin for an ALUMINUM washer and cotter pin. Most of the washer had squeezed in between 1st gear and the shaft.

I have cores and probably int plates, too. Hit me up next week after my test.
