Repair leak at speedometer cable on a Turbo 350
Transmission fluid is leaking where the speedometer cable screws into the speedometer gear housing on a 1979. What parts need to be replaced?

Around the outside edge of the housing is a large o-ring........also.......there is a small seal held in place by a C-clip in the center hole of the housing that the speedometer gear-shaft slides into.....
If the speedometer gear-shaft is damaged/scratched where the small o-ring seals around it, you may need to replace it because it will make the new small lo-ring start to wear and leak.
