take that bolt out of the bottom of the tranny bracket.....does it pour fluid? if so, someone put too long a bolt into the transmission case

Would that of caused any damage to the inside of the trani?

 

[slo_eg8]

it might hit the final drive if its long enough, but I doubt it. take it out and see if indeed someone punched through the case

Kinda hard to tell what do u think? Thanks for the replies man

 

[slo_eg8]

it doesn't look like it bottoms out lol, looks like it opens up in there. find you a coat hanger and push it as far as you can, is that length longer than the bolt? lol

 

[Jpelks]

It is indeed longer than the bolt so I wouldn't believe that is the problem.

Try and clean everything off really good with brake clean, like really really good, make sure all parts are nice and dry, wipe excess brake clean off with a rag, then test drive and recheck.

Oil getting slung everywhere can build residual oil in places that will drip out later on, making you think you still have a leak.

I've been burnt like this before

Good point didn't even really think of that, I'll get her cleaned up an wiped down and go from there. Check again tomorrow when I get home from work

Oil box on back of motor can cause this, check your PCV valve as well as hosing everything down with brake cleaner.

I've only seen two shaft seals leak, because the shaft was bent during shipping on a pallet.

Anything is possible.....I've seen some weird leaks that you'd think were easy to find.

Iv always wonders what that box was, never had to touch it before, will also look into that!
