    Pulling my travel trailer to WY from TN, made it almost to Kingdom City MO and suddenly a loud bang and oil every where. Can't see where exactly it's coming from, too hot to get underneath.

    Looking for help finding a place to to repair!

    Hopefully its simply like its the engine oil cooler line or if you have an automatic its the auto transmissions line.

    Look to see if its a red color oil for transmission or darker for engine

    Definitely oil. No oil in the engine. Got off the road and shut down just in time. Lucky I noticed smoke in my mirror bc non of the passerby s honked or seemed to care that I was making a smoke cloud.

    Getting a tow to Columbia.

    Seems to be coming from between rear bottom of engine and bell housing. But can't be certain just yet. Need to get it on a flat surface and pull the shields down
