so that rubber seal at the rear of the trans. is the main seal for the fluid?
If I have the yoke in with no driveshaft, will it fall out the back since nothing is holding it in place.
YOULL NEED FOR THE SHAFT TO BE IN IT but if you really dont wont to run it on the stands fill it with oil, let it warm up good then drive it down the road at a slow speed for a little ways. then check for leaks. check for leaks as soon as you start the motor also. you can also turn the rear wheels by hand to get some oil moving in the trans.
