Tranny still leaks

I had a leak from the tailshaft where the driveshaft connects to the tranny, so I reaplced the seal, but after only one day the leak is back. Any ideas?

maybe a cracked case or extension housing...............that'd be the first place i would look if you know the leak is in that isolated area and you already replaced the gasket

No it's coming from the area around the driveshaft yoke.

Check the driveshaft for any burrs on the end that could be tearing up the seal.

if the driveshaft was just laying around and rusted up and you installed it, itll rip a seal right up.
