[QUOTE="MVanover, post: 1040806, member: 75690"] Thanks for the inputs! I pulled the suspect bolt. The boss in the transfer case is much larger than the bolt diameter. The boss was dry. I assume some weird airflow moved the fluid up to the bolt area. The majority of the fluid is at the aft end of the pan. I tightened the bolts in the area, but think that Emory is right, it's probably the pan gasket. Interesting that the pan is embossed that the gasket is re-usable. I think not in my case. I will look for the bulkhead connector. I saw no other places where there was fluid apparent. I'll try to check the fluid level and change out the gasket this weekend. I did find 6R embossed on the tranny housing. I thought all the 6Rs were six speeds, but mine only has 4 speeds plus the overdrive. [/QUOTE]
