WHERE ARE YOUR PRIORITIES?
If your homeless, jobless and about to have a son to be responsible for, the last thing you should be paying for is storage on a car. I don't care what kind of car it is. A car is just an object. A child is a committment that will last at least 18 years. I am not a doctor but your head needs to about three foot higher than what it is. Sell the car and invest the money in something to improve your life and your childs. That baby will need a responsible father starting now.

Steve, you say you can crawl under and feel tht the crack is dry??? Then use the JB weld i mentioned in the first reply to you. Just make sure all the tranny fluid is off the surface. If you have some spray brake clean this will do ... Mix the JB Weld and place it on the crack and let it dry overnight. Fill the tranny and drive it to your neighbors.. End of story... Put your new pan on and its done..... Nuff Said.... Quit your whinning about how rough you have it!!!!!! We ALL are tired of hearing that... Just fit it......
The point that I'm trying to make, after all the drama yesterday, is that
I was tripping on fixing a car in Washington and I'm probably not the only one here that did the same thing!
So RR, be nice to the people that are trying to help. You'll be surprised at how far it will go! Rick

LMAO, this reminds me of that Monty Python sketch about how rough they all had it....lmfao
"You think you had it rough ? There was 23 of us and we lived in a shoebox in the bottom of a lake and we had to walk uphill to school each day both ways....
Here's the facts kiddo... " WELCOME TO REALITY "

i know of of 1, and its only 3 bucks
it will seal as the fluid leaks, worked on my gas tank when my floor jack slipped and made a hole and it was leaking.
seal-all
still on the tank and its been 8 yrs,
but thats the problem with a temp fix, it works (sometimes) and when it does we tend to forget about it and never fix it right,

Ok. LISTEN CAREFULLY. This works great on gas tanks, should work ok on a trans pan. Go get a cheap bar of soap or two, (note, liquid soap that a lot of men use now wont work) then rub the crack with the soap, fill it with fluid, drive it like you stole it to friends house. Problem solved. No more whining about who said what on this thread. Thank you, come again.

Well after having to jump the car from it sitting there, I just drove it, and yes I did make it, and put my new performance pan on.

thinkin with me dipstick
just a thought - with a kid coming very soon, the absolute need to keep a job - how about trading it for something reliable and safe to get to work on time as well as haul the new family around in? cars are a great hobby, but supporting the family is a priority.
and before the attitude - i know what i'm talking about, there is a eating, sleeping, growing little reason my mopar collects dust...

I know the situation very well... I started racing in the late 60's and my son was born in '75... Yep, I'm telling you I'm an old fart.... 
But, had to quit for the normal reasons... Saw the "light at the end of the tunnel in 2000 and got back into racing in a very small way then... Youngest got married last November... Picked up the Challenger the Monday after her wedding... Now I'm doing what I saw on a bumper sticker on a HUGE motorhome... "I'm spending my kids inheritance!!!!" And that's all I've got to say on that.....

After reading a few of RR's posts, I looked up his profile, and just KNEW he would get into a mess like this.
Know how i knew? I was him. In a lot of ways, I still am.
I'm the guy who thought his transmission was leaking, cause the more I poured in, the more it leaked. (overfilled)
I'm the guy who forgot to install a flexplate, and tore everything up on first startup, and had to startover.
However, I don't feel sympathy for dude. Same as I don't feel sympathy for me as a youngin, when I was too dumb to take good advice when I got it. I'm no old geezer, but I am about twice his age, and I do NOT miss being that eager about stuff. Paying storage on a car that will never get finished, trying to work on a car when I don't have money or even jacks and a jackstand? insane. I look back and wonder how my car EVER ran.
Anyway, just my two cents, but after hours and hours of technical reading on this site, this was very, thoroughly entertaining.
