Using the bolts and nuts really helped, it still leaks a little but not nearly as bad and only slightly actuates the rear clutch but not enough to push the clutches and steels against the snap ring. I feel good about it. Thanks for the help!
I still get a good air leak sound and I found it to be the front clutch rings which are installed on the pump. The front clutch drum is new and I changed the rings out for a different set but no change. With just the front clutch installed, some air bubbles and fluid leak by but not much. Should I be concerned? The rear clutch doesn't sound this way.
