If you have changed the trans that many times, then it must be a u-joint yoke problem. Look to see if there is a groove in it. That would let fluid leak past the seal. If not, then maybe it is just worn out or the is not inserted completely. Of even not in all the way because the trans is shorted. I have seen this with people putting the wrong transmission in vehicles.
