Default 2014 JK Tranny Leaking from top

Hey guys, anyone have a tranny leaking from the top (breather?). My supercharged 2014 JK, 37s s & 4.88 gears got hot and fluid started coming out from the top. My bad, was using it in 4 high to pull a heavy load a short distance repetitively. Anyways, probably gonna have it towed to the tranny shop. She still drives fine. Maybe I blew a seal?

If it’s coming from a breather (I’m not familiar with this xmsn), then I’d say it did what it was supposed to do. The fluid got hot, expanded and needed somewhere to go so it doesn’t blow a seal. I’d suggest to check your fluid level and drive it as long as it drives fine. Clean the fluid and see if it still leaks afterwards.
