![]() ![]() A new housing would have been a couple grand more than the repair. They told me the shop they used, who to talk with there, and to tell him he could call them if he needed any info. Luckily the service guys at CAT had seen it before and worked with a local machine shop on the fix. Ended up having the housing sleeved in the worn area. I had that issue in a CAT TLB where the forward reverse clutch shaft sealed in the transmission housing. If that has a groove in it, that could leak even if the ring is not broken or appearing worn out. If that is a metal sealing ring on the converter stub shaft look closely at the surface it runs in. Likewise there are seals on the input shaft of the transmission, behind the driveshaft yoke. The converter housing has a seal at the output shaft where the flange for the driveshaft to the transmission exits the housing. If that is what it is it would seal inside the converter housing. There is a ring, which may be a sealing ring like a piston ring, (JD's latest changes to the parts catalog took away the ability to see details on many of these type things some of us had through our accounts.) on the stub shaft on the output end of the converter. It looks to me like the converter itself, has a couple O-rings where the sections bolt together. It looks like the converter/flywheel area should be dry. ![]() I didn't spot a plate in the bottom of the converter housing in the parts catalog either. Hopefully someone who has been into one of these will weigh in, best I could do was look through the on line parts catalog. Thank you for any help, comments or anything. I would hate to pull the engine and trans if it could be something that I could fix without doing so, output shaft seal, O-ring or something in that nature, I just assumed all this time it was the input shaft seal. Surly others have been into these or have seen them leak like mine. What am I missing? I do not want to tear into it until I know what is in there, I cant find much info on these dura-shift torque converter transmissions. The dealership was going to call me back twice last week with part numbers but no luck yet. I do not see an input shaft seal or any seals for that matter for the torque converter that could be leaking. I can not find in any of my manuals the inspection plate with two bolts listed anywhere other then it mentions it briefly in the section to remove the engine and trans. I am going to pull the engine to fix whatever is causing this issue, my problem is I am not getting much help from my local JD dealer, online manuals or the manual I have at home. It is leaking at a steady stream while working the machine. It is leaking transmission fluid from the inspection plate on the bottom of the torque converter housing. ![]()
