hey linda... shut it LOL
LESSON LEARNED: DO NOT ASSEMBLE INCOMPLETE TRANNIES FROM A BOX OF PARTS (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chairfall.gif) here was the problem.... first gear had an "offset" , making it stick out too far, and had the wrong NEW dogteeth on it.... (911).... so we swapped a first gear from a 914 and works great. Attached image(s)

Ask Andy and Jenny how many times I had their trannies out for the exact same reason (leak)
In both cases: Neither crankshaft had the sleeve for the inoput shaft of the tranny. Drove me nucking futs. I know we installed at least 3 input shaft seals between the two of them until I figured it out on Andy's car. B |

Let me guess, you installed the gearstack with the tranny in the car. I've said this many times - it's almost impossible to install the gearstack back into the tranny without damaging the mainshaft seal - or at least knocking off the spring that keeps tension on the seal.
The ONLY way I would ever do this, is to remove the side cover which provides access to the diff. From there, you have plain sight access to the mainshaft seal. One person installs the gearstack assembly from the rear - a 2nd person guides the mainshaft as it comes through and makes sure it goes right through the main seal without disturbing the spring. If you do it blind, I'd say there is a 99% chance of distrubing the spring/damaging the seal. Demick |

You don't need to drop the motor. Dropping just the tranny is definitely easier and faster than doing the motor and tranny together.

When I slide a seal on a shaft I usually wrap the shaft with electrical tape up to the area the seal rides, slide the seal over the tape and into place, then remove the electrical tape. Sometimes the shafts have burrs or keyseats with sharp edges and you can nick a brand new seal on the install.
