Hello all,
I will be removing my 4 speed from the 71 this winter to have it rebuilt. I'm leaking plenty of oil from the front of the case in the area of the output shaft, and after 127,000 miles it's time to have it fixed.
I know that this will likely need a bushing installed in the front to bring it "back to round" and avoid further leaking (per many previous threads). Is this a procedure that is commonly done, and the guy at the local transmission shop will understand and be able to perform? Or should I send it somewhere in particular? I only want to do this once, but if I don't have to ship it, that would be nice. I'll do whatever I need to do, though.
Thanks for any suggestions you might have.
Patrick
