ok so for those who have followed me you know that i just replaced the flex plate and all went well. for a day... now my front input seal is leaking like a siv and its making a noise that sounds like an exhaust leak. i thought thats what it was when it first starting making the noise and it is RPM sensitive. is there a bearing in there that can be replace? or is it my pump? can i catch a break i hate taking the trans off this car going on 4 times in a 12 month time frame.

 

heres the video sorry its shaky i was pretty irritated at this point. but the noise if coming from right at the front of the tranny by the TC if not the TC

I feel your pain.

 

similiar problem? man if it was just the seal leaking i would be fine with pulling the trans down again but since its making that terrible sound i dont want to pull it to replace the seal put it back and have to pull it because whatever is making that noise goes out.

 

everything but the noise. Thought I had a blown seal. Pulled the trans, replaced the seal and it still poured out. I have a thread on it.

I just had the pump bushing replaced and I replaced the flexplate. I will be putting the transmission back in thursday evening. Going to cross my fingers.

What kind of converter are you running?

 

stock converter and yeah wednesday im doing all of mine again, hey how do you take the seal out im on lunch so i ran home and looked at my stock 700 that went out last nov and messed with it a second i unclipped the little washer that goes around but now idk how to take the seal out? doesnt have anything to do with the surrounding bolts inside the bell housing does it? how much was it to get that bushing replaced i guess thats not something a DIY guy could pull of huh?

 

slide hammer or a seal puller is all that is needed for the seal. Heck a screwdriver would work.

As far as the bushing, I had a guy replace mine. I was told he had to remove the valve body to get the pump out. $50 is all it cost me.

 

well man luckily i have some really awesome friends, my buddy is giving me his fully built 700r4 that has yet to be installed so im putting that in saturday morning, and im gonna have mine rebuilt for him so its easy on my wallet with christmas right around the corner. ill let you know how it all goes keep me posted on yours as well... Godspeed brother, Godspeed.
