I think I am over filling my Transmission. When I fill, The level in the transmission does not drop even if I let her sit over night. Then I fill the transfer case to the fill hole. With both filled to the fill holes, I leak out the front seal after a long drive. Its not motor oil. Any input? Scott
A certain group of T-90/D-18 assemblies have a crossover port between their cases. These require not filling the tarnsfer/lower 8unit at all but slowly filling the Tranny/upperunit until the transfer is full then you must stop filling the tranny. Maybe someone else can confirm I have the oil going in the correct direction. _________________ Wes K

Thanks, Wes, I do have top it off disease. Sorry for the late reply, I drove 4 hours to pick up what I thought was an M101CDN that wound up being a 53 M100CDN that is in surprisingly nice shape for sitting in the woods for 30 years uncovered. Lomg day, had to dig her out.
