Let's see. It has been a week since my last big problem. I swear I should get rid of this dame thing. Anyway, tonight, I thought I had a screaming u-joint, but it would come and go. When I got home, I jacked up the front and spun the front tires. The transfer case makes a thunking sound every time the drive shaft spins. Fom my search of the forums, it looks like it may be low on fluid. Admittedly, it has not bee checked in a long time, and I will do that tomorrow. But, either way, I think something is shot, and it needs to be re-built. When I put it into 4 in the driveway, it went in ok, but when I put the tranny in reverse, it didn't do anything. I could not move. Then, I heard a grinding noise like a missed shift. I took it out of 4, and came in to bang my head on the wall. Some of the other posts have mentioned getting one from the boneyard for about $100. I wouldn't mind that, but how would I know if it is in any better shape than mine? I have never done any transmission or t-case internal work, but I have re-built just about everything else on my jeep. Should I try to re-build it? Anyone know a good source for a remanufactured or rebuilt one? Thanks. I am going to drink and cry myself to sleep. :bawl:
