I fixed "The dreaded tranny pan leak"

CudaFactHackJob said

I've posted on here NUMEROUS times about how to install a tin pan so it doesn't leak. It is ALIEN technology so i can understand how patience might be worn thin... But I must condemn shooting an oil pan; or destroying any car part that has no blame except that it was installed IMPROPERLY again and again. Shooting an oil pan only lends credibility that there is something inherently wrong with tin pans; which there IS NOT. Violent acts have their place, but not in the process of repairing MOPARS..So just pull up your big boy pants and admit that you're not a mechanic...and leave it at that.

Wrong
I have installed many dozens of tranny pans over the last 4 decades the majority stamped steel, dont recall having any issues. This pan gave me trouble right from the day I pulled it out of the box, leaked since it was new. I thought I may have lost the touch so I took it to a friend that owns a transmission shop and had him go thru it - still leaked. Three different mechanic's 3 different style of gaskets, checked rails for straightness - all leaked. Just the money I spent on new ATF would have dam near bought a new cast pan. The original factory pan which I had on/off twice never leaked.
That cheap *** piece of china produced crap deserved to die, I just made sure it was quick so no one suffered.
