Ebay Deal Yes/No?

[robs_c10]

Need some help guys. I just got my truck running after three years of a build. I have 1500 miles on it now and realized 2 things.

1. The transmission pan leaks (It is a TH-350 directly from TCI)

2. I don't have a flex plate cover

I called TCI and even though I had only 1500 miles they would not warranty anything because it was over 3 years ago. So I went on this website and came up empty. So I checked eBay. I found this deal...

Its only 35 plus 14 for shipping....I am a firm believer that if its to good to be true than it usually is....Any comments or concerns would be greatly appreciated..... Thanks...

if you want chrome and don't overtighten the pan, it will probably work fine. You may be able to get your current pan to not leak with a little hammer work and new gasket. If it's leaking, it is likely you've over-tightened it (or have you ever even had it off?? perhaps TCI over-tightened it...)?
Also - make SURE it's the pan before you order a new one - sometimes it's a more serious leak that drips down to, then from, the pan. If only 1500 miles in >3 years, the gasket may have dry rotted. But then again, with all the chemicals from crop dusters in the air in Hanford, that gasket should last 50 years....

put a new gasket on its not that difficult ,get a quality one like felpro , no cork and no rtv

Ok. I seen somewhere someone said no rtv. I think I did use some. Ill drop the pan and do that first. Thanks

My 2 cents worth.....

I struggled for some time with a leaky TH350. It was a combination of the pan and the shifter seal that were leaking. I bought a B&M deep aluminum pan and the excellent cork/rubber gasket they supply worked great! I did put some sealer on it but I think it would have sealed fine without it. I also replaced the shift seal...no more transmission leaks. Engine still leaks though!

I also recently had a leaky transmission pan in my C20 with the TH400. I put on a Moroso gasket from Jegs and it sealed beautifully. I also have a TCI chrome pan on it.
