Well it has been almost 6 months since I had the nv4500 off my truck to put in the DD clutch I had purchased. I also replaced the rear main while I was back there, but as I was driving to work today I smelled something like burning oil. As soon as I got to work I looked underneath the truck, I couldn't believe it but there was oil slung all over the place. It seems to be coming out of the bell housing so I think it is safe to assume the rear main went. Now I need to dig into it and find out why... I have never had this happen before to me with nothing else being broken so you can imagine how happy I am...:bang:bang:bang
Now I have changed the oil about a month ago just like I normally do at 4000 miles with amsoil. Truck has no performance issues that I could put my finger on. Any ideas as to what could of caused this without effecting performance?
I hope I can salvage the clutch will try and post some pictures if I remember with what I find. Any tips on what to do to try and save the clutch from further damage from oil contamination other than removing it from the trans and wiping it clean?
