Leak leak leak!!!! Arghhhh (SOLVED)
So I had another thread on here were I thought my trans leak was coming from my front seal. Not. I replaced the front seal and it's still leaking, and now that I look at things, the drips are coming from nowhere near the front seal, not only that it's dry in that area. I replaced my lines and around the ends were they connect to the trans are dry as well. I have a new rubber grommet as well that holds the trans dipstick. Another member said TV top hat gasket but nothing coming from there either. This is so strange! Could it possibly be my pan gasket?

FOUND it!!! And boy is it steady. Coming from my TV cable seal! Imagine that. This was pointed out to me by a previous member and I should have figured something was odd when I had my tans out while replacing the front seal and tipped my whole trans over and fluid started coming out of where the tv cable goes. Damn I wish I had replaced it then. But I'm glad I found it!!
But where can I find this seal?

Found the seal for 80 cents and upon replacing, turns out there was never one even installed!! No wonder it was leaking like crazy. All is well now. Thanks!!!
