Transmission Torque Converter Problems Need Help

Recommended Posts

Well my jeeps just about complete, and I topped off all the fluid today and when I go to move the jeep I hear a grinding noise conning from the converter area. I tightened all the bolts so its not hitting the flex plate

 

Fluids good and topped off

Will roll a couple feet foward or back but as soon as the gas is applied to won't move and the noise comes

 

Trans recently had all new seals down, I did find some dust shavings when I removed the lower flex plate

 

I'd hate to take the trans out if its something simple but I'm leaning towards a bad converter

 

Specs

1990 jeep mj

Lwb 4.0 auto 4x4

 

Any help would be appreciated

What kind of grinding noise? Are you sure the tcase linkage is correct and its fully in gear?

Sounds like when it's spinning its rubbing on metal, I thought about the linkage, but if it wasn't fully engaged, it shouldn't move forward or back at all right? Ill take a video tomorrow so you can hear the sound, I'm praying at this point I don't have to drop the trans again... Will be a pita
