    Hi guys. I was checking under my 355 today. And i noticed when i was checking the selector rod gator (The bit that sticks out of the gear box and attaches to the shift rod, #62 in picture is the gator)
    I noticed that there was some drips of gear box oil in the gator. the question is this. I cant see in the diagram which seal needs to be changed. Can anyone help please? Would it be part #5 at all? Thanks

    Yes and # 20 can contribute to it, they are a sleeve type bushing that the shift rod slides in.

    A worn sleeve/bush can also cause it to leak Joe?? :):)

    I suppose it would pay to replace both then? :):)
