P38A Torque converter oil seal

[Jaytee112]

Good Afternoon LandyZone Peeps, would anyone have a part number/know of a good place to buy? a torque converter oil seal for a 4.6 auto gearbox? I have just swapped the box on my P38, replaced the oil seal with one from a local seal/bearing specialist, and it pee's oil out after 50 miles of driving (but the gear change is silky smooth though )

rtc5102 ,not a seal i change unless in doing a full rebuild,as they rarely leak,and theres allways a chance a new one will

Thanks jamesmartin/ Wammers, should have left it well alone, don't think it was leaking before, but the gearbox has been unused for 12 months so replaced it as a precaution - oops
