Seems once a year I'm fixing a small leak around the guide bush where it goes into the tranny. Each time I replaced the o-ring and used hylomar. After time,
it leaks again. Any reckomendations on a better sealant??? The angle drive is new too, so thats ok. Thanks |

The guide bush is a replacement which seemed in excellent shape. I used the new one when I replaced the angle drive last summer. The o ring seems shrink over time. Next time I fix it, I'll try your suggestion and go with the original guide bush. There seems to be alittle spacing around the guide bush when you insert it the tranny, but its secure when the bolt is tightened. Both matting surfaces where smooth. I throughly cleaned them with brake cleaner prior to reassembly.
Thanks for the tip. |
