The trany on my 83 Sturgis has been leaking for years! as soon as I finish this job in Vietnam I'll be on my way home to Thailand and my Shovel to pull out the trany and get started.
Thanks for sharing your fix and I'll be watching for more of your vids in the future. be safe out there.

The spacer I'm using is an OEM#35070-77. I removed the original spacer with no problems. I installed the new O-Ring Spacer. After installing I noticed 2 small slivers of sliced rubber I believe to be from the O-Ring near the shoulder of the threaded spline. I'm a little suspect that I may of damaged the O-Ring on the spacer. I tried to remove the new Spacer wth the O-Ring and it is almost impossible to remove. Is there a way to remove the new Spacer/O-Ring without damaging it? Thanks.
I notice by looking at this video the brass sleeve isnt even visible its further in the tranny

@Rustynails403 I think you are referring to the brass bushing the separates the main shaft from the sprocket shaft. That should be recessed far enough to allow the main shaft seal. If it's sticking out and blocking the main shaft seal than it has failed and will need to be replaced. Gould you send me a picture?

There are a variety of spacers for the four speed. the difference is the depth. all year spacers have the same hardness. I had a 79 that I did this with and the spacer machined fine.
