6 shooter is weeping

:'( Rolled under my buggy tonight to change the blood and found oil tracking from between the clutch housing and the trans.. The trans is down about a 1/4&quot;, so it is not a bad leak, just enough to wash the dust off. It is definently trans oil, same color as in the box.<br>Has any one seen this before? I'll set an appointment with the dealer to inspect.

I'm watching mine. I saw a drip of oil on the bell housing the other day. I haven't seen a repeat yet.

I drove it by Karmart Dodge, what a name, and they comfirmed it was leaking. Most probable, input seal, they ordered parts and should have them by thur. and do the work on fri.. Pretty quik if it happens. Flashing blue light special must be on 6 shooter repairs this week. lol

Took the truck in yesterday and they found a bad silicone sealing job on the input shaft bearing retainer. It's fixed and ready to roll as of 9:00am today. Good service from Karmart Dodge in Burlington WA..
