Transmission fluid coming from the front of my trans

look to see if the side of the pan is leaking put some cardboard under Neath the car sounds like the pan gasket is not tight enough might take it back to were you got it fixed wood be good idea

most likely it is leaking where it connect to the Trans cooler behind the front grill. If the trans lines use clamps you will most likely just need to tighten them up. If it uses quick disconnect fittings you will need to buy a set of quick disconnect tools about 10$ at auto parts store pull the leaking line off and replace the seal inside the line. Good Luck I hope that helps.

if its coming from between the engine and trans it could be the trans front seal.

Hi,

This will be coming from the front transmission to torque converter seal.
The transmission will need to come out and it will need to be replaced.

Thanks

Well, you have to put the car up on a lift, clean fluid and find out where it is coming from. If the front pump area seal, yes, you need to pull the trans to fix that. If it is leaking from the pan, that can usually be changed without trans removal.

O.k. the small hose that you have coming out of the case is the trans vent. The one going up the firewall is for the transfer case. The trans vent should be hooked to the transfercase vent. You say you have a 383? Are you running the fuel injection system. Is this a 4L60E (the stock transmission). If you have fluid coming from the vent, the transmission is getting too hot. Replace the cooler. Do away with the radiator cooler and add one to the front in front of the condenser.

There should be a dip stick near the rear of the engine compartment with a red handle on it for the transmission. You want to check the trans fluid with engine idling and the trasmission in park. If it's full of fluid and the vehicle won't move you are most likely looking at rebuilding the trans. To change the fluid you have to drop the pan off the tranmission and the filter is inside. The filter just pull out, the new filter will come with a new seal that presses into the the pump housing. DO NOT attempt to change that seal, leave the old one in place, unless it is damaged. Unless you you have the proper tools to replace that seal you will most likely damage the transmission housing trying to remove the old one. Also, if the transmission is low on fluid, where did it go? Is it leaking on the ground? You may want to check the transfer case oil if it's way overfull the seal between the transmission and transfer case is bad and the trany fluid is leaking into the transfer case. You may want to change the transfer case oil too, they both take Dexron III fluid. Good luck!

it could be the trans pump

you will still need add the proper type fluid to proper fill level, get under the truck, clean up transmission so you can visually monitor where the leak is coming from. Chock the wheels, emergency brake set, start and idle vehicle check for leaks. If trans is leaking it will probably be a front seal (oil will drip from small hole in the bottom of bell housing), pan gasket, loose cooling line to radiator, or rear tail shaft leak ( where drive shaft enters the trans.) Don't forget to check the lines for pin holes and the radiator for leaks.

The transmission is either going to leak out the front by the engine, or by the halfshafts, or possibly by the shift detent which is unlikely. Check the connections to the radiator - the small lines that go there as one of them can be broken. make sure everything is completely cleaned off and your transmission has fluid in it before you check it. If it is full, it should leak with the engine running in neutral or park. If not, you can always have your foot on the brake and shift into the gears to see if it will leak then. Smoked transmission when out of fluid may mean trans will not work any longer... Hope this helps you, Rick
