As I broke the strain on the last top bolt (the one missing in one of the photos I was vectored to), I began to see txmsn fluid weeping out the hole in the tailstock of the Transmission where it connects to the Dana 300 ( see two attached jpgs).
That means to my simple mind a seal has leaked at the output end of the transmixer........ or is it a usual thing to see a drip every 4 seconds there?
I'm gonna go through Chilton's and Moses Ludel's books; think I saw something on this. but someone with more experience chime in, please.
BTW, Driver007, the single shifter shaft to my Dana 300 IS threaded, not a smooth pass-through like yours. The speedo connector is different, and probably a bunch of other things. I'll try to post a list when I'm done.
The best way I found to get at the Dana 300 top bolts was to remove the floor plate holding the rubber boot for the shifter.
