Re: [Re: best motor mount configuration?]

["Chris DeLong" <green536@hotmail.com>]

unfortunately if the seals were installed correctly with new flanges and it 
is still leaking then it would mean that the carrier bearings in the tranny 
are worn beyond spec and will need replacing. The only way to replace them 
(and shim accordingly) is to tear the trans apart and install new ones.
