Gearbox Oil Leak from front of bell housing

[Carslil Jim]

I recently had the gearbox overhauled and a new clutch installed and now when I stop gearbox oil drips rapidly from the front of the bell housing for a while and then stops.

Any ideas as to what the problem is?

If its an LT95 4 speed most likely source is the oil pump cover or gasket. But it also could be the spigot shaft housing gasket or the spigot shaft seal.

I agree - I recently had to do my LT95 clutch and did not know about this issue - I thought the oil leak that existed was from the engine as oil was dirty and replaced rear engine seal - but still leaked when put back together. The oil is coming from the front of the gearbox and is getting dirty hanging around the bottom of the bell housing before it drips to he ground.

As the oil in the actual gearbox does not change much there is no way the gearbox is coming out again to fix so is staying as it is.

My leak is not getting worse and I would suggest if the leak is not too bad it is something to live with. You will soon tell if things get worse.
