took the truck out into are field through the snow wanted to get up on a hill we call sand hill to sit and watch for deer . took a few mins. but got up on top with some spinning and chewing well got up and looked down were I came up and could see a line of fluid trailing right in the middle of my tire tracks got out and looked underneath and had fluid leaking right out the back of the tranny . I drove it back home called my son he came down took a look and thinks its the front tranny seal and its leaking out of the torque converter . so guess its done till spring don't have a heated garage to put it in just outside . I am wondering a couple of things do you think the torque converter is ok ? do I have to pull everything down to fix the seal i.e. on bolt tranny from motor etc. and could this be the reason when I put it in any gear it vibrates through the whole truck ? Thanks

 

If its the front seal at the torque converter, the tranny has to be dropped to change it out.
If it 's an output seal, it can be changed more easily.

Two wheel drive or 4x4??

 

yes its 4wd , how do you know if its the front seal ? my son said right away that's what it was not the rear but if its the rear wouldn't it leak just as much ? I did craw under like he did so guess he could have seen something I didn't . thanks
