Shifter Shaft Seal
« on: October 27, 2008 - 01:33:36 PM »
I've got a leak coming from the shifter shaft. On Rock Auto I see:

Selector Shaft Seal $1.05
Shift Shaft Seal $4.17

What's the diff?

Also, I recall reading about a bushing as opposed to a seal, but I don't see any sign of a bushin on Rock Auto.

It's probably a misprint, the cheaper one I bet is the kickdown shaft seal/o-ring (under the washer in the shift shaft body)

I've been not looking forward to it for a while  :bigsmile:. It's really leaking badly thought. As far as I can tell that's the only leak point. If I'm lucky.
