Re: Gear Case Sealant

[Don]

It seems doubtful that the oring seals are at fault, even with no sealer, unless there is a defect in the housing allowing water to leak by the orings.
More likely one of the seals, or grooved shafts, or perhaps a shift rod seal…Don’t know how those are set up on the Chryslers.
Once you have it reassembled, you should pressure test the gearcase to ensure the problem is solved.
