Transmission hose/line identification

[Datwhitez71]

I was wondering if anyone can give a name to this hose/tube in the picture I added (the one I circled) seems to be coming from transmission/transfer case/or els were!

 

its leaking from rubbing on the frame and need to know what it is!

Where does the other end lead to?

 

The end that isn't going above the transmission. If I was a guessing man I'd say it's a vent tube on some sort. There are no transmission pressure lines that run above the transmission like that. If it is the vent tube just cut the section out and put in a piece a rubber transmission line hose from the parts store.

Awfully fancy for a vent tube.  I don't remember anything like that on my 900s though we share the same parts back there.

That blue tag nor the white letters on the tube provide any sort of feedback or insight into what it is?

Well.  That item shouldn't be leaking any fluid at all as that is the lower half of the transmission shift cable.

@newdude thats what I thought! I will get an actual picture if my truck in a few minutes to show the leak. And @14burrito i did take that photo from his feed but he was talking about a different tube!

I'd look at the transfer case and forward of it.  Look for any leaking seals or cracked components.  Does it smell familiar at all to you like engine oil, ATF, brake fluid?  

[Datwhitez71]

@newdude no smell definitely can take brake fluid out of the question and transfer case and tranny and all components are spotless! Only thing that has an oil like substance on it is that cable and around it aswell as one of my cats. My focus has moved towards the yoke coming out of transfer case it could be leaking and flining it 

 

I have a dealership appointment to figure it out since i cant pin point it

It's that seal on the end of the transfer case that is causing the fluid to spray all over.

Clean it all off,  spray area with leak trace powder/ or spray foot powder/white, and drive for 5/10 miles and reinspect, those years sometimes the yoke it self leaked and you can seal it by cleaning and adding silicone sealer to the freeze type plug in end of yoke, but its also possible its just the seal? Thats  why the leak trace powder will pin point it
