I discovered a problem with this setup today. The small shaft (that wraps around the pass side driveshaft that is meant to transfer power to the bevel gear) seems to require some pressure against whatever it seats against inside the transmission. Without seating tightly enough, transmission fluid leaks out of the transmission.

Some good has come of it - I can tell I need to flush my trans fluid again from the colour and smell of the fluid...

Anyway, I put some metal adhesive on the shaft and built a little retainer for the shaft out of a plastic spray paint can cover. It seems to work for now, but I might just end up putting the bevel gear back on sooner rather than later. I don't know how well this is going to last.

As I stated in the first post, the intent of pulling it out was to give me time to get it checked out and look into the possibility of repair/rebuild. If I end up putting it back on I will just have to delay that.
