Thanks!

MY 1972 through MY 1986, or whenever the G60 came into production. 72-73 trannies are undesirable due to input shaft seal problems. The Cap'n

WEVO has a fix for the input shaft seal issue. Electronic speedo's were available in '76.

OOPS! That would be the "G50", not the "G60". As for the Wevo "fix", what would that be? The seal is installed "backwards" and from inside the tranny. Leaks occur because the seal is installed opposite of the way it's designed, and replacement requires a complete disassembly of the transmission. One would think mods would not be cost effective, given the 72/73 trannies had none of the numerous improvements of the later boxes, especially in the area of the 2nd gear synchro bits. The Cap'n
