1999 FXDX-15000 miles. Transmission leak, two attempts at local H-D to fix (no success). At bike speed shop undergoing fourth tear-down currently. All seals, gaskets, and bearings replaced. Appears to leak at or near 'Quad-seal' area, but very difficult to pin-point. Oil appears on drive belt and guard, and all over wheel and fender. It's a mess. Over $1,000 invested....(sick).
Assuming the work is being done correctly, is there any information of 'unusual' conditions that may cause this leak problem. Rumors of porosity problems with the trans case itself are out there, but, unsubstantiated. Shaft run-out's, and diameter tolerances will be checked prior to re-assembly. Any suggestions, greatly appreciated!
