Transmission leak

[ashirkey]

To start i have a 1998 eclipse GSX with a 6bolt swap done, When i bought the car it had a little leak coming from the drivers side of the transmission where the intermediate shaft went into the transmission. i ordered the OEM seal from STM and i took the old seal out and made sure i put the new one in correctly. and lubed the shaft back up when i put the new on in and it still leaked. it has the 6 bolt a/c compressor bracket on it and I am not actually sure if there is a difference between the first generation and second generation intermediate shafts, or the a/c brackets are different sizes that align the shaft in the transmission. I'm not sure if it has the 1G shaft that has a smaller diameter where the seal rides at or what the problem would be. Any help or idea what the problem is would be much appreciated.

The ear on the intermediate shaft from 1g to 2g are different. The 2g has 1 bolt that does go through the a/c bracket. I always use a 2g a/c bracket when doing a 6-bolt swap. There is a good chance the thickness of the 1g to 2g bracket are different causing the shaft going into the transmission to be crooked or not center creating fluid to sneak past the seal.

the seal in my transmission looks to big, or the shaft is to small and does not even seal around the seal at all.
