  i might be jmping into this a little late, but what the hell. how do
the flange seals look? i'm talking about the ones inside the flanges
where the c.v. joint bolts up. i've had numerous transmissions that the
seals fall out of. simple fix. the seal are only a couple dollars and
put some silicone over them after you install 'em. if not the
problem....
