General Information - Tracker 2WD Manual Transmission

The cause of transmission oil leaks can usually be located with the transmission in the vehicle. The transmission case components are constructed aluminum and are separated into six pieces: the clutch housing, input shaft bearing retainer, upper case, lower case, extension case (two-wheel drive models), rear case (four-wheel drive models) and the gearshift lever case. If a leak exists between the upper case, lower case or input shaft bearing retainer, the transmission must be removed from the vehicle for repair. Refer to TRANSMISSION UNIT REPAIR. If a leak exists at the extension case (Two-Wheel Drive Models), rear case (Four-Wheel Drive Models) or the gearshift lever case, the leak can be repaired without removing the transmission Assembly from the vehicle. There are three methods for locating manual transmission oil leaks.
