Hey yall. First post here. I have a 2002 4.0 SOHC with ~109,000 miles that appears to be leaking tranny fluid where the trans meets the engine. I guess that's the rear main seal? It's definitely not engine oil. I can't check the fluid level on it due to lack of dipstick. Is this a common problem? Is it a DIY kind of job for the weekend mechanic (I can do brakes, CVs, etc.)? The Haynes manual is less than helpful. I want to avoid the dealership, but haven't found a tranny shop I trust yet. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thanks, Seth.
