just saw something
 

well... a few minutes ago i decided to crawl up under my truck to make sure that there are no leaks and stuff. but when i got under i noticed a new leak, it is where the tranny meets the back of the engine. its hard for to tell because im partly colorblind... but would that be trans fluid leaking from there, or oil?

Sounds like your rear main seal may be weaping (oil). Do you have an auto or 5 spd.

5 sp automatic

its the rear main seal... unless its leaking really bad dont worry too much since you have to remove the tranny to repair it and its not worth it imho

Yeah at this point the rear main is just weaping, no big deal, just keep an eye on your oil level, if it gets real bad and starts to noticeably leak, then ide have it checked out because they are a project to change

yeah last night while i was fillin up i checked my oil and noticed that i was a little low... so i got some oil a got it back up to normal. but if i have to add half a quart every thousand miles... i think thats a lot cheaper that getting it fixed fright now. thanks for the fast reply

My 98 has the same problem with the rear seal, nothing to worry about doesnt drip oil or anything. I always park in the same spot in my driveway for about 2 years and not a single drop of oil there from my truck where the rear seal would be parked on.
