The Inner shaft seal is not sealing.. Pulled the new cable after I installed it, same thing. Any ideas as to what is going on?
Noted. I'll pull it apart and reseal. Time to take another ATF bath.The Inner shaft seal is not sealing.
There is a depth that it gets installed to.
It does not get pushed all the way in , IIRC
Look at the FSM.
Also the direction you install it is important
When I did mine I had the rear end in the air (jack stands at their lowest level under the rear axle) and the front on the ground and that was enough for not a drop of fluid to me out.Time to take another ATF bath
Just so happens I was on your website awhile back looking at speedo gears and I was going to call into you guys asking about this topic. Appreciate the info here.Yes, there is a specific depth the seal should be installed. Look for pitting on the stem of the gear. Also look to see that the retaining wire is holding the inner seal in the appropriate place.

Who knew there was a tool! Just bought it.Also look to see that the retaining wire is holding the inner seal in the appropriate place
There probably is in a FSM. The tool pushes the seal into the proper depth, then put the wire in place and push again. Make sure the "open" side of the seal faces the oil.Are there instructions or a video out there somewhere to show exactly how to use it? I'm new to the project car scene and cutting my teeth as I go along.
Ha was just looking at that and was about to take a screen shot. Will ATF running into the speedo cable ruin it?
No, might make the outer sheeting soft, maybe 60 years from now it will fail.Will ATF running into the speedo cable ruin it?
You will want to clean out the cable and re-grease. Oil tends to work it's way up the cable, and can end up in the speedometer. I have seen it happen.Ha was just looking at that and was about to take a screen shot. Will ATF running into the speedo cable ruin it?
Unfortunately, same case with the trans pan in regards to shavings. ATF doesn't look as burnt/metallic sheen but that's because new fluid was added prior to removing it.I wouldn't worry unless the oil in the pan was the same. I had crap in the tailshaft housing fluid that looked like hell, transmission is fine. Maybe that's why the seal is leaking
