Tightening the tranny pan or engine oil pan requires only about 2-3 ft. lbs of torque, you may need to check warpage on pan as a previous poster indicated and re-install the pan and only torque the pan bolts to a couple of ft lbs.

Default Re: Anti-Freeze Leak - Thanks all
Thanks everyone for the responses. I probably over torqued the bolts and bent the pan. I'm gonna try and get a new one and make sure I tightn to specs.
Thanks again all and Happy Jeeping!

The standard sealer for water pump gaskets I've always used is gasket shellac (Indian Head or something like that is the only brand I've ever seen). It's kinda messy, but I've never seen it leak.
