95 tahoe transmission lost all fluid

[SunlitComet]

Tranny in then adapter then t-case with a seal between tranny - adapter and a gasket between adapter - t-case. You will find some fluid that will leak over a lot of time but if it is pouring out a bushing or seal is worn on the t-case or tranny. Below is a pictorial of the setup. #10 is GM 1258899 and number #8 is gm 24245110. You can get them at the dealers, online and very likely at your local parts store.

The rebuilt trans came with a new seal for the trans side, but I will still need to get the gasket for the transfer case side. Ill post back when I look at the transfer case and see what I think, if its leaking or not. It probably did get messed up when the tranny broke now that I think about it

Is there anything that I shouldn't be putting Loctite on? As far as I can tell the torque converter bolts, transfer case to adapter bolts, adapter to trans case bolts, etc all need Loctite on them.. I don't think the ones holding the trans to the engine had any Loctite on them.

Also I need to torque the torque converter bolts, correct? Ill have to look those specs up. Is there anything else I should make sure I torque down to specs?

And it doesn't look like the transfer case is leaking from side that mounts to the adapter. It is normal for fluid to come out of the output shaft, I am hoping..?

converter to flywheel 46 ft. lbs.
bell housing to engine block is 23 ft. lbs.
to cross member 38 ft. lbs.
to support braces 44 ft. lbs.
t-case to adapter and to rear or tranny is roughly 24 ft. lbs.
No loctite is required on any.
When the drive shaft is in place it should not leak if so replace the oil seal in the output extension and hope it was just the bad u-joints that caused it to wear out and leak more from just normal wear would and that is the only issue left.

Hahahaha

No loctite on flywheel to convertor bolts means you WILL be back here after a few weeks asking why there is a weird knock coming from the back of your engine.
