This is a surprise and annoying leak coming from my rebuilt TA. Any advice for fixing the angle drive leak? This trans was rebuilt and stored, shifts great, but is too old to go back to the builder.
Thank you. |

I did mine last week , replaced oring, seal and felt washer.
Took about 15 minutes and I had to add 1/2 quart of gear oil. Parts are available at pelican and other suspects. |

Send the whole unit to McMark at Original customs. He rehabs them AND adds a second o-ring. Slick upgrade.

Second o ring is the way to go.

Mine hasn't leaked since having the second o-ring modification done. |

McMark should have some in stock if not hit me up.
