I got stuck in the mud and I tried to get unstuck for only two minutes. I put the truck into park and shut it off. I came back the next morning and got the truck pulled out of the mud, but my truck would not move. I noticed the gasket on the transmission was leaking badly. Would this cause my truck to not move? Or is my transmission blown? I tried to repair it with gasket maker, but it is still leaking and will not move. It seems like it is stuck in neutral.

SPRAYING GASKET MAKER INTO THE CRACKS IS NO'T GOING FIX LEAKS.

YOU HAVE TO REPLACE THE GASKETS AND SEALS.

MAYBE YOU GOT LUCKY AND LEAKED YOUR TRANSMISSION OIL OUT.

CHECK THE LEVEL.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DRIVE IT UNTIL YOUR LEAKS ARE FIXED AND THE FLUID LEVEL IS RIGHT.

AT THAT TIME YOU WILL DETERMINE WHETHER YOU FRIED THE TRANSMISSION OR NOT!
