Jeep leaked a ton of fluid overnight. I’ve already replaced pan gasket and filter. The fluid seems to be collecting on top of the transmission support and leaking through onto the ground. Yes I know the trans mount is shot lol. Where else could it be leaking from?

there's a UV dye that is used for tracing fluid leaks... I know they have it for oil, fuel, coolant, and trans. If you can't pinpoint it, you could try putting some of that in and it might help you trace it back. Comes in a kit with special tinted glasses. Here's a link to what I'm referring to. You can just get the dye by itself too. A lot of auto parts stores carry it.
