Thanks to all who responded to my question on tightening then rear nut on
the gear box. I pulled the flange off when I got home and found that it did
catch the rear felt seal so the flange was not bottomed out all the way.
I found an easy and fool proof way to solve this problem. I removed the
rear housing and fit the drive shaft flange in the housing first. This way
I could see that I had it properly installed inside the seal. I then slid
the housing into place with the flange still in the housing. I lined up the
splines and then slid the assembly home. Simple and easy!
Thanks again,
Ron Olds
