I wondered the same thing.
The radiator doesn't only cool the engine coolant, It also cools the Transmission Fluid that comes from your transmission through the cooling lines.
So your radiator has a crack somewhere and that would explain the transmission fluid leaking out.
Hope that answers it.

there is a rubber o ring maybe dryed out or split
Either the transmission tail seal or the transfer case input seal has failed. The transfer case has to be removed to replace the seals.
It is in front of the radiator.
The 2014 Jeep Grand-Cherokee has a 8-speed shiftable automatic.
No, they will not interchange.
Will bolt up, but will not shift. The 1998 is controlled differently by the computer.
It is built into the radiator.
Yes, pressure and return cooler lines.
Your radiator is probably leaking transmission fluid into your coolant. Trans cooler is built into the radiator. Replace the radiator.
where is the fill tube for the transmission on a 2001 jeep grand cherokee
Your best bet is to change out the radiator,because if you remove the radiator and take side off to repair the tube you will not get the radiator to seal up the crimps or to soft to get tight enought to keep it from leaking water ,been there ,done that and ended up with new radiator, radiator barn is good place to get a new one.
