i have a leak from somewhere and i cant figure it out. theres oil around the pass side axle where it goes in the tranny, and on the crossmember by that side and it runs on the shift linkage. you can also see it on the rear mount. pretty much all around that general area. is there a seal where the axle goes in the tranny? after explaining it it sounds like its from there.

Is there oil on top of your transmission too? If so, it might be something else. If not, than disregard this.

touch it, see it, feel it, and smell it. determine what it could be. next, degrease the bad area, next day, check to see where the leak is starting at. follow the cookie crumb trail....
