FastOrange: Stage 2 (Transmission)

Its not leaking from the seal that is on the end of trans, it is leaking from the vent in the middle of the yolk, trans itself is sealed up and is bone dry.

Not even a little bit? I'd be concerned that once you swap slip yokes the seal will leak.

Not a drop... the slip yolk currently in truck is from a 4L60E, that slip yolk that came with trans is going back in...

hmm, now that i think about it, i might as well do it, having no hole in yolk could add pressure to seal.

That was my reasoning, too. Plus, you'll all ready be under there.

yea the seal wasn't the part I was talking about leaking it was a o-ring that's inside behind that seal.

But yea it's like the front seal if you got it out might as well change it, it's cheap and helps keep you from getting a leak.

Fixed the leak yesterday, the vent on the yolk was actualley borken, causing the leak.

Had to get a special conversion U-Joint to use TH350 Yolk on 4L60E Shaft, but its all back together and works great.

I figure with this current setup i could get into the 13.5-14.0 range easy, i have a number of 13.8 in my head.

And im enjoying the high stall TC, when the engine hits about 3000RPM, the truck throws you back into the seat, very fun!

How can the vent break? All it is, is a hole punched in the end cap.

actualley, it wasnt just a hole, it was more like a plug, sorta hard to explain.

Are you talking about the cap itself? The vent is only a hole. That's not something I think, or am guessing...... that's something I know.

 

[Swims350]

yea they are a hole that's it, kind of like a water pump weep hole.
