    So I've had a leak for a while now. Every time I park the truck I find a small puddle where the tranny and block meet up. I figured it was the rear main seal. So we dropped the tranny swapped out the rear main seal and while installing the tranny we noticed a leak coming from it. So I resealed the tranny and we'll get it back together once the silicone cures.

    If you guys need any mobile mechanic work my friend does great work. You can find all his contact info here.

    Rear main seals are such a bitch. So mush work for a $12 part.

    Got all new parts to rebuild my shifter. Should hopefully help with all the slop.

    Are you running a short shifter on your truck?

    Stock shifter. I'll eventually get a short shifter though.

    When i put on in my truck, it made a huge difference in reducing the throw. It feels like it's less than half now. Shifts are much shorter and notchier feeling. The new shifter bushing like you have there made a big difference too in tightening up the feel of it as well.
