Did a 4l80 in my 73 and the tailshaft won't stop leaking 2 bushings 3 seals and all I've made it do is leak worse.

It looks like your driveshaft may be too long. The slip yoke should not go all the way into the tailshaft on the transmission. It should stick out about 3/4 to 1 inch.

Google 4l80e rear seal and bushing issues. I believe there were two different bushings used over the years. Something like 40 or 50 thousands difference on the inside diameter.
