Good day everyone

I am building a model T speedster with model A axles.
I was wondering is there a kit you can buy to prevent the ppossibility that the oil from the rear will go to do transmission because the chassis will sit lower and the angle of the torque tube will be different.

Are you going to use the A drive shaft and torque tube? If so, you can reverse the seal in the end front of the torque tube. It is designed to keep oil from going from trans back to the diff but when reversed it keeps oil in the diff. I had the same problem in my A pickup which sits quite low. The above method worked for me.
