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?? |

The trans was leaking out of the input shaft seal.
How do you get the input shaft seal out of the front of the transmission? |

The trans was leaking out of the input shaft seal. How do you get the input shaft seal out of the front of the transmission? where do you see the fluid? if coming on the bottom middle hole between transmission and engine, probably the rear main seal is the one leaking with engine oil since you also mentioned just a few drops after driving. Just another item to check also. |
