I had my '46 Chevy pickup on a lift not too long ago and decided to check the fluids. The transmission was near empty and the rear was overfilled. Yesterday I was at a local car show and a guy told me that the seal in the back of the transmission was bad and the gear oil had leaked into the torque tube driveshaft and gone into the rear.
Is this a repair that I could do myself? Would you pull the transmission?
Any suggestions would be helpful.
My next show is in a month and is 100 miles away in Sea Isle City, NJ.
