MY 1993 ford f150 2wd trans transmision seal always leaks. What do do I need to keep it from leaking, for good. I removed the drive shaft and replaced the seal, twice. What do I need to look when inspecting the driveshaft.

Look at the seal surface on the shaft, there may be a groove worn where the seal lip runs, if so the new seal will sit on the same spot and the tension will not seal the lip.

It is still leaking even though I replaced the bushing and seal.
