I check my bell housing oil every day and make sure it is between the lines ; ) Hate to run low. Might damage the CAT O strophic converter.

After my issues with the leaky front transmission and watching the video below... makes me wonder if there are more leaks out there? Have you taken your bell housing drain plug out and checked for oil?



ATP AT 205 is calling your name. Or that gantry that you've always wanted, can now be yours!

I posted this as a PSA and not a joke. You would not know if your rear main or trans seal is blowen with the drain plug in. There could also be water inside. Mine had water in the bell housing when I first got the truck...

Sorry, I was just joking.

I do not use snake oil... I fix stuff right... and that is to replace the seal and bushing.
It's a temp fix, that can buy you some time until you can pull the engine or whatever. If you have a blown trans seal, and use the Alison trans fluid, should be red.
