I installed a replacement transmission in the 71.
I may have overfilled the trans. Would the excess trans oil leak out the axle and front seals or does the presence of leaks mean I need to replace the seals?? |

I'm not sure how it's possible to overfill the transaxle unless you did it without it out of the car. You're pouring oil into the upper plug and once it starts to spill out you stop.
Did you attempt to fill via the vent on top of the transaxle? |
