Might have cracked the case.
Rear u-joints okay(common reason for cracking them)? Or it could have been overheated and puked the fluid from the breather. |

Well I have read about this. Pull the pan inspect it flush it put a new filter in new fluid and if it fixes your problem you save 3 grand. if not your out the oil and filter.

As far as replacements, there are 2 that are widely recognized as the best : John Wood and Brian at BTS. Being that you are on the out west, most over there go with John Wood (he is in Cali). Brian is down in Arkansas. I'm one of the exceptions to the rule that live on the east coast and still went with John.

Also I forgot to ask, does John offer a shipped swap? South California is a little far for a cheap tow and I can't get away from work long enough to haul the tranny down, and afford it...
