Jeep Transmission Pan
Q. I bought a remanufactured transmission about 6 weeks ago. Since the installation by a Jeep dealer I have replaced the pan gasket 3 times. The pan still leaks. I can’t seem to keep the bolts holding the pan in place tight. Please offer some suggestion.

GeorgeA. I've run into this problem with Chrysler transmission pans before. What I do is clean the pan and apply some 3M Weatherstrip cement and glue the gasket to the pan. Then I clean the transmission and bolt holes. I apply another bead of Weatherstrip cement to the top of the gasket and put the pan in place. I coat the bolts with some LockTite and torque the pan bolts to 13 foot pounds.
This always works for me.
