tugalo Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Just a heads-up....88 MJ Pioneer While driving in city traffic, i depressed the clutch pedal to shift gears and heard a loud pop. Truck was locked in low gear and i could not shift it to neutral. Feared a transmission removal and slave cylinder replacement, but trouble shooting revealed that the spot welds that hold the shift rod bushing to the S bracket under the dash had sheared, so the clutch was not connected to anything.... Removed the bracket and bushing and rewelded, all is good, but the original factory spot welds were pretty shoddy....might be worth an inspection on your heep..

onlyinajeep726 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Someone posted something about that here recently... Same deal, half-assed factory welds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjbret13 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 Just had this happened to me earlier in the week. Got it fixed yesterday. Cracked the factory weld. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
