Hey Mark, do you think JB weld on the old seal would stop the leak?

...let me back track. My seal started leaking after the body lift mainly from the auto-trans linkage being out of adjustment. Everything is fine now but the seal must have split and is now leaking.

I know JB weld probably isn't the best fix but i'm doing the 5-speed AR5 swap next summer and just want to limp the auto trans through the winter/spring. I definitely want to fix the leak to avoid any problems before next summer but it sounds like installing the new seal is a PITA.

Thoughts?
