Transmission leak...

Ok, so I rebuilt the fuel bowl, EBPV delete, new turbo o-rings and looks like my oil leak is gone. Today after driving around for a bit I parked it in the driveway. Later this afternoon I went outside..cause I just like to check out my EX...who doesn't? There is a medium size stain on the driveway. I'm thinking "crap still leaking oil", but when I checked it...Red as can be. right in the middle of the truck right near the torque converter cover...I will take pics tomorrow. Any rough ideas out there? I think this is the second time it has done this, and I have no idea why.

Thanks,
Art

Hi Art.

Sounds to me like you have a bad front seal. Take a better look, but most of the time it leaks from that point the transmission has to come out. Sadly this isn't uncommon, particularly on transmissions that have overheated.

Thanks, Tom, I appreciate it. When I bought it the PO told me it got a new tranny about 60K ago, so I was hoping that it would last a little longer than that especially since I haven't towed with it yet...Thanks for your help.
