could my tranny be doomed :(?
Heres a lil background:
clutch went out trying to launch, my bro decided to do a clutch change on his own,
cool, i tought, might save on some $$$, anyways, i got a stage 3 clutch from
action clutch. Dropped it in, put everything back, and it ran fine for like 2 days.
Then we noticed it was leaking oil, gear oil. We thougth nothing of it, and went on
driving. Next day as i was driving, i started hearing some noises as if i was
dragging something..odd....next thing you know, the car refuses to move at all.
Like if the handbrake was on, but it wasnt; tranny was full with oil, had filled it
with oil an hr before.
So i am here to see if anyone can help. Im willing to pay $$ for work to be done, i
need this car to go out and stuff.
I am in Los Angeles California, if anyone can help, im like 10 mins from downtown
LA.
So let me know friends.

that leak is from the tranny fluid. there is a hole at the bottom of the tranny. check the clutch through that hole and see if something happened to it.

I have been doing research on the whole clutch install process lately myself. Just from all the threads that I've read on here it sounds like you might be missing the o-rings between the transfer case and transmission. Here's a thread I found about it...
