Motor needs to running with it in park to check level. Not sure what the displacer is, do you mean the Torque Convertor?

Where is the oil coming out from?

well thats what i thought it was called Torque Convertor but it was said to me about a dissplacer??? but yes my bet is he means the Torque Convertor

the atf is driping off between the air con rad and the gear box (i get a better idea ) i go a look my self (hurt my back) but iam going under the surf to see

There's a bunch of hydraulic valves and solenoids in autos (which do the gear changing) -- maybe that's what the guy means?

If its anywhere in front of the gearbox, it can only be leaking out of the cooler in the bottom of the rad, or its pipe. The convertor dosn't normally leak, but it runs in a seal on the front of the gearbox that could be worn, if its leaking out of the front seal of the gearbox it'll be running out of the bellhousing.

Generally if the convertor itself is foobarred, you won't be going anywhere or truck won't drive properly.

just washed it off (was a bit muddy)
from what i could see it looks like it is comeing from the bell houseing iam sure it looks a dent on the seal (the houseing) i need to get it in the air and look
be back in 1 hour or so
iam going to look at right this time

[JUDWAK]

i think its the front seals (i think?) its leeking from the bell houseing just above were the propshaft gose in to the box like thing (trasfer box may be)at the front just under the drivers seat
is it the seals or the Torque Convertor?
dissplacer i carnt see one of those
