Hey folks,
I recently rebuilt my transmission and we had the small oil gutter piece break off and so we left it off. Now I notice that my tranny seems to leak a lot more oil from the rear seal (where drive shaft connects). Is this because I am missing that oil gutter piece or I just need another new rear tranny seal? What exactly does that oil gutter piece do? prevent oil from getting into the rear of the tranny? I do not find a part number for that oil gutter piece. Anybody have any experience with fabbing up something else for that piece?
