It overheard bc I was on it too much in a low gear. Which caused it to overheat. I ran it pretty hard
helppp! major oil leak?

Then the transfer case would have issues as that is where the reduction is done. You sure its not the transfer case? That does not look like trans fluid.

The A750f was not released until 2003 - so your're wrong again as that was for an 02 sequoia. LOL @ your rationalizations.

^^I'm loving the mileage on my V6 - at least till the tires get here...
Lol at your reading skills: "Technically speaking, the tranny was the same in both models (according to the post above)".
The tranny was used in 2003+ V8 and V6 4runners... so it's a part in common to both versions of the 4runner. This had nothing to do with the sequoia.

They didn't say anything about the transfer case. But they said I blew bushings and seals inside of the tranny

Im not fond with engine components but do I have a transfer case even if mine is 2wd?
Although the 05 and up V6 and 03 and up V8 shared the same tranny the V8 has a cooler as std, which might have prevented this issue. That said, there's plenty more than can and does fail on both models - we all share the same lovely brake calipers and CV joints 
and plastic seal within our Transfer case

Nope - didnt know that. You have the A750e transmission as well. Dont know if that changes anything internally...

Internals are the same on the A750 trans be it 2 or 4wd.
Clearly the reddish tone on the fluid indicates transmission fluid.
Obviously, the chance of failure for any machine increases as you work it beyond its intended purpose/capability.
Anybody with a V8...go hook your SUV up to a double axle trailer and a Bobcat skid steer and see how that sweet engine, transmission, and transmission cooler work for you.

Ahahaha.
Well hopefully all goes well with this new transmission. I really like to drift on dirt corners etc. Guess no more of that for me unless yall have some advice on how to prep my runner before-hand.
Never thought I would be ruining my tranny all this time

I am not saying you are wrong, but how do I know that you are correct? Just out of curiosity, off what information are you basing this statement? Just because you've never heard of a failure, are you basing this off of some report? I would genuinely like to know. Thanks.

More people look for something online when something is bad as opposed to good - they like to complain to everyone. I have been an actve member on iH8mud which is an LC site. There have been no reported failures let alone serious issues with the V8 since its introduction to the 1998 100. - and there have been none on this site - so, I'm inferring it. 13 year near flawless service record under far harsher running conditions is enough to warrant that assumption IMO.
Keep in mind I'm talking strictly the Japanese 2UZ-FE found in 4R's and 100's - not the US made one in Sequoias and Tundras.

Yet another? LOL, V6 engine failures are about as rare as 5-legged dogs. You need to grow up.
No, don't listen to that guy. He's just biased and not very good when it comes to statistics. He seems to think that the world revolves around this forum and nothing else matters. In his mind, if nobody in this forum ever reported a V8 engine failure, then it couldn't possibly have happened.
My guess is that 99.9% of V6 owners have no failures whatsoever. It's a solid engine.

uMadbro?
Not mad, just laughing at your ignorance. No matter what silly crap you come up with next, I'll never get mad.
Take a statistics course and get back to me after you educate yourself.
