Dual Path driven gear and sleeve - trying to stop leak

[ainokea]

I recently bought a '61 Skylark with a dual path transmission. Fluid was leaking severely from the driven gear sleeve (bullet). When I removed the collar I discovered the speedometer cable was not installed. The guy I bought the car from gave me several cables and a couple 19 tooth driven gears, an o-ring, and a rubber grommet of some sort. At this point I'm just trying to make it not leak so I can drive it and solve some other issues.

I'm looking for some type of assembly drawing showing how to put it all together, as well as verify I have the correct sleeve. I have not been able to find a single photo or video online. The chassis service manual does not say how to install it either. I'm working on trying to figure out how to attach photos, but am evidently not tech savvy enough to pull that off yet.

Any help or additional know resources would be greatly appreciated!

Just wondering if on the 1963 Buick 4100 4200 4300 Workshop manual in Automatic Transmission, Page 5-128, 5-129 if that will help you resolve your concern?

The dual path leaks from the dipstick as well, it has a T-top shaped sleeve. See in the Restoration section there is a list of resources for dual path parts.

To attach images on your post, look at the bottom, you will see a paper clip with "Attach files." When you mouse over this and click it will open to allow you to get your images. Might be easiest if you place them at an easy location like on your desktop before attempting to. The post lets you preview before posting.

Yes that helps! I did see that same illustration in the '61 workshop manual. Maybe I'm overthinking it and just need to put it back in with a new o-ring. I'll check the dipstick tube too. Planning to spend some time looking around the restoration section now! Thanks for the reply!!
