Unhappy Bleeding Tranny!

I have a '90 8 valve tracker with 3spd auto tranny and after a night of hard wheeling the transmission is leaking tranny fluid every where! It started shifting funny on the way home it acted like it didn't have enough tranny fluid wich 20 minutes before leaving i pu in a little under half a quart to top it off. i pulled over and checked it out and it was 2 quarts low i topped it off once more and checked for a leak and it looked as if it was bleeding from around the bell housing.so i babied it 2 more miles home and parked it. the bucket i had under it over the night had less tranny fluuid than i had expected to leak out i started it up and let everything get warm checked the level in the tranny. it leaked about 1/4 of a quarrt overnight and didn't pour out while runnig as it did last night but did drip at a steady pace. i can't quite see where its coming from but it looks like its from the bell housing on the passenger side. Any Ideas?

well the reason it didnt leak as much over night is because auto trans are under high presure while in use, there fore it will piss out, as for where its coming from, no ideas sorry

Look at the lines that run to the radiator(for cooling) or maybe you gouged the pan.

the pan has a few very slow leaks but after brainstorming with the wheeling buddies i think it all happened when i had the pasenger front in the air and it hit the ground spinning causing a very loud pop my first thought was a cv shaft had broke but i drove out like nothing happened and 4 wheel drive worked fine and the cv was intact. i have no idea what the pop was
