[QUOTE="T-Rex Jeepster, post: 431578, member: 19821"] When you say RTV, Here's the problem.....Auto tranny fluid is off the chart with detergent additives....Which DESTROY anything with a rubber base/content...Other poster was right, Pan edge looks warped which comes from torquing down on the bolt heads..... Anytime I pull a pan or cover of thin metal, I put the pan edge on a hard flat table edge And take a 3/8 drive extension and tap all the bolt holes back flush with the flat surface. Do that and find a cork gasket and when you reinstall, Use a quarter inch drive ratchet/socket and torque them down in a cross pattern starting with the center ones first. Go easy, Seating them first and make several passes easily applying pressure until you get a "Snug" Feel to them all. Remember, Your tranny fluid gets upward of two hundred degrees and I'd re-torgue them after a few days when it's set and cold....Just remember, 1/4 inch drive, And gently to snug..... [/QUOTE]
