i rebuilt my engine and swapped the transmission, replaced the front pump seal and torque converter out of a 98 cherokee. worked great for 7 months then out of nowhere it sprayed fluid everywhere and smoked bad...what could cause this to keep happening and how can i fix it cheaply and effectively?

Its hard to say-you need to open it up again and investigate the cause-
