Wet Concrete From Transmission Extension Housing

[YukonCrazy]

As a side note, I do remember having the drive side mount replaced a couple years ago. It was obvious when putting in gear with one foot on brake and the other giving it gas the drive side of motor would go up and down. Really don't think I ever had the passenger side replace.

So I assume it's possible the vibration may be due to a worn passenger side mount? Still need to figure out the leakage though.

Looks like it is a GM extension housing. Hopefully that partial number stamped on there isn't the actual part number as it looks like it ends in 3015.

x2 what Galante/Pete said: balance the drive shaft and install a new seal.

Forgot to mention, I had the original driveshaft balanced early on while trying to diagnose the vibration. No change. Same vibration. Went so far to order a new driveshaft with yoke and u-joints all put together, which is what is on there now, and again no change. I am pretty sure it is not the driveshaft.

By the way, the small vibration that is there at times, I do not feel in the steering wheel at all. Driving down the road at the speed limit and the vibration comes and goes. It's not consistent. It's subtle, but there at times.

Now you tell us....not trying to be an ass but when you come on a forum and ask for help you need to be specific and you need to mention everything you’ve done to the vehicle lately even if you don’t think it has anything to do with the problem. For me, this entire discussion has tested my patience from the very beginning with the ambiguous description of the type of fluid causing the concrete to be “wet”. It took forever for you to tell us it was most definitely trans fluid, we were left to assume. Then there’s details like the motor mount and now the driveline that you forgot to mention. I’m wondering if there’s other details you have left out.

Sorry about not including the drive shaft info earlier.

Planning on finding a level surface so I can check the trans fluid level.

I remember all that stuff you went through a year or so ago. Whoever installed the seal might not have put it in right, with a block of wood instead of a seal driver.

Mark, it seems we think alike about this. That is why when I ran shops I asked at least 20 questions or so because I wanted to know everything to help make a diagnosis of the problem.

My old saying was, "If the problem only happens at midday Sunday in the rain turning left over the railroad tracks while going uphill and feathering the gas, I want to know about it".

Too many times we get 4-5 pages in to a thread and then a key piece of info is spit out. Oh well. Good day.

@PNW VietVet

when you want to tag someone put the @ symbol before their name.... just a friendly fyi

btw im going with seal and driveshaft out of balance.... my 01 went through a few seals (output shaft seal on transfer case...pretty much same thing as end of the trans on a 2wd) until i had an aha moment as to why, yanked the shaft sent it out to be balanced and viola...

ps @YukonCrazy .... i knew what you meant by wet cement.... first post you said drip out of trans....

Thank you Pete. @Galante
