Aluminum Driveshaft Leakage

I have the Ford Racing Aluminum Driveshaft and after it was installed there is a little leakage. I have put a brand new seal there also. Is there anything else that I can do to stop this thing from leaking trans fluid other than swapping out another driveshaft?

Your replacing the actual seal and not the dust-boot covering the seal right?

I dont think there's too much to be gained just switching driveshafts... its a cumulative thing... if your loosing weight every way you can it's good... and if ya got balance problems with the stock shaft its a good replacement... otherwise, i dont thing there's a BIG gain...
