Leaking transfer case
My transfer case has been leaking all over my driveway. I was wondering does lucus or anybody make a stop leak for them? Thanks

its not coming from a seal. Its hard to explain without putting a picture up, ill put one up tomarro. Its coming from the center of the case where the two halves of the case meet up.
Its in my 95.
Heres a pic I found off google of the same case

If it is actually coming from between the two main case halves, then the only solution is to remove, disassemble, and reseal this location. It does not have a gasket from the factory, it is just RTV sealant. As such, I doubt any seal aid additive will help because they generally work by causing the rubber in a seal/gasket/whatever to swell.
The two surfaces are held pretty flat when machined so RTV is good enough. Sounds like someone may have had it apart and did a crappy job of cleaning the surfaces before putting it back together.
