Default Im leaking trany fluid can someone help me out

I am simply just asking for possibilities of where it can leak. I saw a red puddle gathering on the tip of one of the bolts in the trans pan while checking out my leaky RMS.

So where could it be leaking from just the gasket ?

Tranny Pan or Tranny Coolant lines are the two most typical places for tranny fluid leaks. However, your transfer case takes automatic tranny fluid so don't count it out.

The trans/pan doesn't use a gasket, just RTV. Check where the dipstick goes into the pan and make sure it isn't cracked.
