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? Need to separate the engine and transmission, then remove the throw out arm and bearing. Once you do that the seal area will be obvious.
