Long story short;
-Transfer case exploded driving down the highway. Towed jeep home.
-Installed another T-case. Jeep still doesn't move.
-Motor starts up fine. When i put the jeep into gear you hear a noise in the bellhousing area.
The video attached is the noise the jeep makes when in gear.
I think that when the T-case locked up or whatever happened (The t-case bounced down the highway then the jeep stalled) the torque transferred back through the rest of the components and the flexplate bolts snapped. I don't know how to check if anything else is damaged. I'm questioning whether the AW4 is cooked or not.
Anyways i have questions;
1. I've never pulled a tranny on a jeep. Is it simple? T-case off, then unbolt the tranny? Anything else involved? Is it heavy?
2. How do i tell if the tranny is cooked?
3. How do i tell if the torque convertor is cooked?
4. Is there anyway to figure out why my jeep isn't moving before i rip the entire thing apart? It's my Christmas break job.
