Let it sit for a while and cool off since I just drove 400+miles on it. Drove forward and no leak. Topped it off and drove 300 more miles home and still no leak. Haven't tried in reverse really other than backing out of the drive and there isn't a puddle under the truck sitting. Anyone have any ideas?

Edit: found a few suggestions searching

Might have started to over heat the trans fluid. Fluid expands as it gets hot. Or did you back up an incline? Slip yoke might have just moved and allowed fluid to pass temporarily until the "load" was taken off the shaft. (thats what she said) ahaha.
