[RC] tranmission specialists - Dixie

Anyone out there mechanically inclined to tell me if a transmission can get so hot it can boil over like a radiator? It's my horse haulin' truck and I'm worried.  It was working a landscape job today and a stump wasn't moving, I made some adjustments and while bent over noticed fluid dripping.  I turned the engine off and looked under to find fluid coming from a pan that looked like it had a place for an overflow.  I quit the job and cleaned up, didn't lose but a dinner plate of a spot and it's done...brought it home 12 miles, no problem in the shifting and no more leaking 3 hours later.  I am going to hook to my horse trailer and pull it around some tomorrow to see what happens.  Can anyone give me any hope? BTW, it's an F-350. Dixie
