I have had leaks that I havent been able to pinpoint so I decided to drop the trans since the car was already in the air, I shimmed my lsd. I have found out that he leaks cone from the front of the trans where the bell housing meets the gear box. But I dont know if that could be the issue. Months ago I resealed the bottom pan and noticed that the leak was stilll there. The reason I dropped the tranny was because I thought the front seal might have been toast. But I don't know if is or not the oil inside the bell housing seems to be engine oil from a long time ago when my rear main seal failed. Here are some pics. And a video of the transmission shaft play. ..is this normal?

 

on the pic its the 4 bottom bolts that seen to accumulate trans fluid more than the other bolts.


and the video of the play on the trans.

 

and i have had this race non sprung race clutch in the car for a lil less than a year and i dont know if i should replace it or not. its seen about 9 drift days @ willow. the pressure plate and flywheel have about the same wear and the clutch disc has about 8.10mm of meat left if measured all together. pics

and the measurement you cant really see it.... fail

 

and the pressure plate the scores are on the flywheel as well, i think its just the nature of the solid race disc

 

bumpity bump

 

i think its leaking where the bellhousing meets the gearbox i will replace everything screw it, its already out and imma check the rear main seal to check out if its good

 

Ordered the transmission front seal. Rear seal. And pan gasket. Also ordered rhe engones rear main seal and the seal for the rear stationary gear

 

Use a good sealant such as the right stuff and let it sit up for 24 hours before you put more oil in it.

 

now that i recall there should be sealant between the bellhousing and the case.

on all aluminum transmissions i would use permatex anaerobic sealant.

the clutch looks fine but normally i check the depth to the pins also, if they're getting near bottom replace it.

 

thanks Ben I will keep an eye out for that type of sealant.
