6R140 Tranny front seal leak (not a complaint just an FYI)

Found this forum researching possibly going to 4:30 gears.
Wanted to make my first post a heads up, it has been my only issue on my 2013 F350, 6.2L, ccsb, 4x4, Lariat. It has been a flawless truck, and my issue seems to be fairly rare. If you are close to your warranty expiring, I would keep a close eye on it. As I noticed at 60,300 miles, thankfully I had an extended warranty so no real worries.

As said in subject, it was a front seal leak (slow leak), thankfully I was in my extended warranty so I could take it to who I wanted(local Ford dealer is garbage). My mechanic said it didn't really look bad so he tested the torque converter to be sure it wasn't from it. Replaced seal with motorcraft parts and all is good, now at 64k+.

Long story short if you do your own service, as I do, take a a good look every oil change, at the least, as mine was pretty slow leaking. I was about a 1/2 quart low... Out of 22! When I noticed.
