My '72 tail shifter shifter rod bushing is leaking and I'm about to tackle the replacement. The tranny is in place and has never been messed with. Does anyone have a blow by blow on the best approach to do this. Obviously, photos would be a great help but I'd appreciate any suggestions on what NOT to do as well as any how to advice.

It's not uncommon to get a drip or two if they sit for awhile. And a little will go a long way. How much are we talking about, over how much time? Also, I'm assuming that it's in the cover (or coming from it). The most likely to leak source is the guide bushing for the speedometer. It's held in by the one bolt at the bottom of the transmission, and really needs another seal to keep it form leaking.
