  1. Its not the trans pan gasket.

    its the output shaft oil seal for the front drive shaft.

    ill be adding some pics tonight, all taken from my camera phone, so not all the best resolution.

    This seal is leaking, its the one i quoted above. when the drive shaft is spinning, its spewing tranny fluid all over the tranfer case, but ONLY in the front of it, all over the underside of the truck floor, but ONLY in front of the transfer case.. the seals between the transfer case, the spacer, the spacer and the transmission are NOT.. i repeat NOT leaking. i will try to add pics of those also as best as I can. they are dry.

    the pan APPEARS to leak, but only because the drive shaft slinging fluid slings it forward and it gets on the crossmember, the cat pipes, the linkage, etc. its will then travel forward, wind up on the transmission, and then look like the pan.

    its not the pan

  2. ok .

    i just got off the phone with my local service shop. (sucks i hurt my back and i cant work on the truck)

    tomorrow im droppin off the truck and they are gonna pull the transfer case down. then, they are gonna have a transmission shop look over the transfer case to make sure its ok, and probably half it and reseal it. IF they dont have anything wrong on the inside of the transfer case, it wont be overly expensive.. god willing..

  3. I know its been covered, but here's my question.

    I know everyone's fond of the NGK TR55's, but while searching summit, I found they were rated with a heat rang of 5

    and while I know these won't be popular, they are rated with a heat range of 9

    what difference will that heat range do?

     

    in contract to both of these, and even more unpopular to everyone are these, which ive been running for a year with zero ill effects and 18-23 mpg on the highway under normal conditions.

    so.. what difference would that heat rating do to us??

  4. i just picked up a new pan and fiber\neoprene gasket from FLT. they suggested that after this, if it still leaks, it may not be the pan leaking after all, but maybe something like the dipstick tube gasket, which may have gotten ripped upon installation, but i watched that get installed, and i dont think the tube gasket is the issue.

  5. my weekend plans

    1) clean truck.. my zaino replenish shows up today

    2) setup my new server that showed up today so i can expand my home network. the mad bonjie network admin strikes again
