Transmission help needed badly
As the subject says........ as of late my 1993 f250 as some tranny issues, today as i was back up my landscape trailer which isnt that heavy (my tacoma backs it up the hilly driveway with no issue) it started to **** out a good amount of transmission fluid from what looks like from the top of the transmission. It drives just fine and shifts into gear nicely still. If you can help shed any light at what is causing this issue. My theory is that it is overheating and boiling out??? but everything else where is fine? Please me me out if u can

It's usually the torque converter hub seal. The seal gets hot, especially when backing, gets soft, and leaks. It seals again when it cools off. More transmission cooling helps, but usually you'll have to replace the seal. There is an improved seal available, but not from Ford. It's made from Viton.
