1997 xj torque converter puking fluid
I posted on here a while ago about my transmission cooler lines puking fluid and now it seems that my torque converter is as well. I was on the highway doing 100km and it started smoking so i immediately got out and there was fluid coming from where the torque converter would be. I'm gonna order a new one but i'm not sure what stall to get because i have 31 inch tires and a two inch lift, also my gearing is all stock as well. Would stock be ok or should i go with a higher stall?
What is this seal called? I've filled it up a few times now and once it gets hot usually driving in the highway it pukes all the fluid out. It doesn't leak driving around town.

Check and make sure the transmission vent hose isn't plugged. Also do you have good flow thru the cooler lines?
I'll check the vent hose tomorrow, and yes the lines are clear, I put new ones in along with the connections into the transmission. I also installed a new radiator as well.
I'll see if I can pull the tranny tomorrow and find out if it is just that seal but if not and it is the t/c what stall should I go with? Like I said I have 31 inch tires and stalk gearing. Thanks!
