sounds like your trans over heated...does it have a trans cooler? Do you have a trans temp guage? Were is the fluid pissing from? What color is your fluid... you might have blown the front pump seal maybe.. it hard to tell from here... I would clean off your trans... See how much is still in there... also see if it is still leaking tomorrow it might have just boiled over... hope that helps...
x100 on the look before you leap.
Check it man, I picked up a car for 400 bucks once because buddy thought his tranny was blown, he lost the hose clamp for the tranny cooler, I told him his problem and he said, aw, take it anyways.
Respect the truck.

sorry I know my post was a little to early for what i knew just figured i would get some ideas for where to start looking.
Alright just got the jeep all cleaned off and cleaned the trans and t-case off most seems to be coming from where the trans & t-case meet on the bottom possibly the rear output seal on the trans? does that sound like a possibility
I checked the cooler lines I don't think they are the issue they were what i was hoping for
if it boiled over there is that outlet?
I recently installed my SYE so I'm not seeing fresh red fluid so i know its not the t- case
for not replacing the output seal when i had the case out
what do yall think?
