The Triumph 2000 / 2500 / 2·5 Register Forum

Hi all I have a Triumph 2000 Mk1 engine and auto box in my 1948 Triumph Roadster. The rear seal is leaking and I want to know that if i can't pop the seal out as per suggestions below can I separate the extension housing in situ to gain access to the back of the seal . I would replace the extension ...
