You talking about the bushing that goes on the tail shaft right?

You mean the transmission output shaft seal is leaking? or the rear main seal?
If its the trans seal I would suspect too much fluid in the pan. All the seals I've seen have a "weep" hole in the seal itself. Id say when it gets to pumping up the fluid is not returning to the pan fast enough and its just blowing out.Last edited by firebird_1995; 08-12-2011 at 11:51 PM.

Also check the vent tube. If its plugged it will force fluid out the seals. Driveshaft yoke could be chewing the seal up if its nicked too.
Is it the same trans that came out of it? Was it rebuilt or something?Last edited by firebird_1995; 08-13-2011 at 01:11 AM.

If the seal was new, the rear bushing might be worn out causing the driveshaft to wobble.
