Quick question. Does the tranny on my '93 Grand (5.2L/46RH/NP249) have a
seal, or is the seal on the front of the transfer case like it was on the
700R4 in my late GMC Jimmy? I'm dripping ATF, I'm just wondering if it's a
seal on the tranny or simply the gasket/RTV between the cases.

IIRC, it's a seal on the transmission output shaft adapter where it
mates to the xfr case. There is probably a form-a-gasket between the
cases also.
For a 93 a little territory marking is "normal" :) I just put a piece
of carpet under the jeep to catch the drippings and add check the fluid
every oil change. Usually it's less than an oz.

Thanks for the info. It's not a huge amount, but it makes it obvious where
on the street my Jeep has been parked. lol I want to swap out that 249 for
a 242 some day (soon), that'll be an ideal time to replace any seals while
I'm in there.
