Arrow Oil pissing out of transfer case after install!!

Just put my engine/trans/tc back in and now the tc fluid is pouring out of the tc output seal where the main driveshaft goes into...It didn't leak a drop before I tore it apart and the tc/driveshaft only has 34k miles on it so I don't see why it should be leaking unless there's another reason....?? Could anything else make oil come out of here?? Idling is fine, once I get some speed it starts pissing out, when I stop, the leak stops...Also when I rev the engine I can hear the sound of gears turning, would have to be the trans, and the oil level is perfect with fresh Amsoil in everything
Thanks

Change the output seal. You broke it trying to find the hole..lol They don't last forever and it is cheap insurance when you compare to running it dry by accident.

I agree too, you probably busted the seal by an accident, I had the same issue, replace it, its easy and simple and you'll be good to go.

Thanks, I drove an extra hour + today on top of my already 2 hr round trip for work to get to the only dealer that had this seal in stock, also got a new o-ring for in between the trans and tc to keep as a spare, although it's much thinner and skinnier than the one that was in there. Will be changing it in the morning and hoping it'll fix it since its the main issue I can't drive the car....and my friend put in the 2 side axles and rear d-shaft so I have no idea if it went smooth or not, he said it did. and for anyone that said axle or thinking about the TWO axles....I'm talkin about the transfer case output where the driveshaft yoke is that goes to the rear diff.
