Transmission Fluid leak over front diff

[TMax]

Hello All!

It appears that I have a fluid leak (it's ATF) just over the front differential. I thought at first it was my pinion seal (which also is now leaking at 100K) but after sticking my hand down around the transmission hoses entering and leaving the cooler, it apears that one of them is the culprit. How difficult are they to change out? How expensive are they if anyone knows... and is that where the check valve is located? I believe that mine was removed when we installed the Goerend upgrades. If I have to buy the new hose... will I also need to remove the check valve again? Thanks for your help in advance.

I would replace both hoses and lines with hydraulic hose and be done with it. Cut the tubes on the cooler back to where you can put on compression fittings to adapt to the hydraulic hose.

Godspeed,
