Finished gettin mine back together last night and tested it out today haulin hay. I'M JACKED NOW. Now that everything is cleaned up we found the real leak. It's leakin between the gear case and motor block. This means the whole thing has to come apart again and then figure out how to get all the gears off so I can get into there.

 

fun fun fun dont something like that require the camshaft to be removed

 

I'm hopin the gear will come off separate from the cam but I don't know.

On a side note here. It's kinda funny that the 2nd gen 24V trucks use the same seals and gaskets for the front gear case as these early years but they are both different from the later 12V that were built.

 

It doesn't come off without a press. Reinstalling the gear requires heating it to 250* ~ 300*F and dropping it onto the cam's snout.





You might consider re-torquing all the case to block bolts (18ft/lbs) if you haven't already. IIRC, all the bolts are accessible with rolling the gears over where needed and reaching through the webs if not out in the open.
