Well, it was leaking both tranny fluid and oil, so i changed the rear main seal, oil pan gasket, valve cover gasket, and that seams to have stopped the leaks up front from the oil, but the only thing still leaking is right above the crossmember below the tranny pan.

is this a seal i can change at home, or does it need to be taken to a shop (since the back cover of the tranny needs to be unbolted to get to this seal)

also, i changed the circle seal inside where the driveshaft goes into the tranny, so its not leaking there.

its a 93 cherokee sport 4.0L, 2wd, auto.

thanks!

 

Well, from what you say "below tranny pan and above cross member". I would say your tranny pan gasket that is leaking and yes, you can change that yourself. Just plan on getting a gasket, filter and fluid when you do it.

 

ok, and that can be had at any napa/discount/autozone? whats the best fluid, and how many quarts?

 

Yes the fluid, filter and gasket can be had at any auto parts store. The original fluid put into AW4 auto trannys was DEXRON II. I don't believe it can be had anymore so, you will have to Use DEXRON III or IV.

 

ok sounds good. thanks for the info. ill get this replaced this week and hopefully itll stop the leaks!

 

i replaced the seal by the driveshaft at the upper right of the pic, heres a pic of my jeep underneath. im gonna change the tranny pan seal like you said, but look in the center where i outlined in red, its leaking alot around there as well.

 

looks like its comeing frow you speedo sensor where it plugs into the tranny,and I would replace your tranny mount also.

 

the mount, is that the thing in outlined in red under the tranny? is that a cheap part? im down to replace whatever i need lol

the sensor, do i need to replace the whole thing, or is there a gasket or seal when i unplug that from the side of the tranny? didnt even know it could leak from there. im not an engine guy, haha

 

I think there is an o-ring for the sensor, and yes that is your tranny mount out lined in red.30 bucks or so on price.

 

cool. ill go pick up a tranny mount, filter, fluid, tranny pan gasket, and a speedo o ring tomorow and see if it still leaks after that. thanks for the quick replies! check my car audio build in the build section

 

will do
