NP231 leak
 

Hello, Yesterday I found that my transfer case is leaking. I cant tell exactly where though. The leak is not mainly from any of the main inputs/outputs. While the whole transfer case is dirty from oil build up, the dripping of red fluid is mostly coming from the middle where it looks like there are 2 different seams that go around the whole TC.

Where do you guys think it is leaking from and how much will it cost to fix?

pressure cleaner at the local u wash place,remember fluid runs down start at the top looking for the leak

Yeah, you need to clean that thing big time and then you will know. It does appear that the input and output shaft seals may be leaking. Clean it and then take pics : )

is there a hose on the breather i wonder

Should there be?

i would think so theres one for aw4 trans

Looks like there is (should be). You can get the vent from the dealer.

I found the seal kit from Cobra Transmission. Is this a reliable place to get parts? At the shops iv been looking at the kit is going to cost around 50 bucks. why is this so cheap?
