Transmission leak

[stutrac]

the leak is on the right side of housing looks to be near speedo cable input (only leaks over night) fluid not over full

that is the transfer case. right.?

it does have 2 seals. an even the cable can leak.
only cleaning it and care checks can find this truth

no transmission,ok maybe looks like a cable i could be wrong,the leak is on top of the pan area looks to be near shift selector, i know old Fords have a O ring that leaks in the same area(shift selector)

just went to the garage and found a large puddle of trans fluid all around the pan now it is dripping on the front drive shaft what are the common seals that go on this trans? the Modulator valve is dry around it, the outher owner did replace the trans mount looks to leaking around knockdown cable possible O ring ? Is the kick down cable easy to remove or is this a trans shop repair?

sound like you need a shop.
to find that source of a leak.
there are many paths for it to leak.
TC, pan, TV dentent. shift rod., MOD. tail shaft. oil pump. etc.

i found the kick down cable that is leaking and the rubber protecting is gone, leaking fluid

tail shaft dry
TC dry
module do not know it is wet there

side shaft do not know it is wet from the top

some have a case oring that is very hard to replace

there are more pages not show, shifter seals, and front end ...
off my 3L30 page
see 16, 21 and 27 , all can leak
also the 4wd transfer class, intersection case (hollow)
as a drain, at the bottom ,if it drips ATF then 14 is bad
if the drain drips, GL4 (not pink, ) the the xfr case seal is bad.

tv cable
set it with some slack, its not critical , only that it NEVER causes
the throttle to jam open.

The Kick down cable can rust ( free play is 0.039 inches,).

ok, i did a search function here and it said put trans in neutral and the cable should be installed with out dropping pan,and also i have to remove crossmenber and drop the trans to access the cable any outer easy way
