I have an 88 MJ with 132K on the clock. I did a 4x4 conversion and replaced the trans with a 4x4 one. A few days ago, it started making a squealing noise that sounds like metal rubbing on metal. its not a belt, the transfer case, or the inside of the trans. its full of fluid.
the squeal occurs at startup and is very loud, irraticly at idle, in reverse at idle, in reverse moving, and whenever i hit a bump, no matter if im going 5 or 50 mph. sometimes on acceleration.
My first thoughts are a cracked flexplate, or the flexplate rubbing against the bellhousing or that sheetmetal peice in between the trans and motor, but i dont know how it could be loose. there are no gaps or anything between the trans and motor.
does anyone have any ideas?
