Blue88Comanche Posted October 21, 2011 Share Posted October 21, 2011 this morning the mechanic finished up mt tranny work (just installing it), turns out its a bad transmission, 1st and 2nd don't work, 3rd and 4th work to some degree, 5th does not work and reverse does now and then.. also while in some of the gear positions the shifter can move left to right, example 2nd right to 4th. i needed to get it home so i drove it the mile to my house in third, it sounded like a bucket of bolts... can this tranny be rebuilt? or am i out of luck, again...

Blue88Comanche Posted October 22, 2011 Author Share Posted October 22, 2011 Bump.. How bad is the tranny, should I rebuild it or swap the aw4 from red's donor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geonovast Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I don't think it needs a complete rebuild. Sounds to me like the shift arm may be cracked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardo Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I had a similar thing happen with a car I used to have.... It would only stay in 3rd and 4th! It's most likely NOT you're transmission.... in my case it was a cracked clip in the actual shifter assembly, so it wouldn't hold the shifter to any sides i.e. 1st/2nd and 5th. I'm new to the MJ scene but just thought I'd pitch my 2 cents to maybe help ease ur mind :popcorn: Fingers crossed for ya! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue88Comanche Posted October 24, 2011 Author Share Posted October 24, 2011 the shifter stub was too short in the tranny, so it was coming out of the "guide" i guess you would call it, when you use 1st 2nd 5th and rev, however it was long enough to shift 3rd and 4th Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
