Jeep noise

I'd guess Clutch or Transmission. Sorry

My CJ, had some issues shifting into 2nd and 3rd, the only way it would go in either without grinding, was to "slow motion" to shift.I rebuilt it Completely, myself.I went overboard, the only thing I reused was the case!

If you are feeling it in the pedal, my best guess is clutch.

Is your pedal at the top, and just slightly down (maybe an inch) you feel the pressure of the pressure plate?

In other words is your pedal engaging high, and disengaging high?

Or is it engaging low on the floor?

I was told that "My NOT FULLY DEPRESSING THE PEDAL", when I shifted, led to my problem (I was not "speed shifting", My pedal is adjusted correctly, I just got lazy with the foot!) Messed up the blocking rings and the surfaces they moved on.

I rebuilt it the same way 7 years ago, around $400 then, Just over $800 this time. Parts only, I was Free!

I hope your pedal ain't right--and adjusting if for FULL PEDAL will fix you up. And everything else is fine!

GONNA SEND SOME MORE PICS

I'M NO BIG OPERATION AT ALL, JUST IN MY GARAGE, I FIX MY STUFF, FAMILY AND FRIENDS (LITTLE CREDIT). OVER THE YEARS I HAD TO FIX THINGS OUT OF PURE NECESSITY, OR WALK! SO I LEARNED WHAT I COULD FROM OTHERS (NOT ALWAYS CORRECTLY) BUT THE COOL THING WAS, I COULD NOW UNDERSTAND WHAT THE REPAIR MANUALS MEANT, AND DO THINGS EXACTLY BY THE MANUAL (THE LOCAL FELLERS WERE JUST A STEPPING STONE). YOU JUST GOTTA DO GOOD RESEARCH AND JUMP IN AND FIX STUFF---YOU CAN'T BE "SKEEERRD"!
MY STEP-DAUGHTER AND HER BOYFRIEND (THE NEW BREED IN AMERICA) HAD ME WORKING ON HIS VEHICLE, THE COMMENT WAS MADE ON HOW MANY TOOLS AND SPECIALTY TOOLS I HAD, THEY WERE IMPRESSED AND WANTED TO KNOW HOW I GOT THEM.I TOLD THEM, "THAT ONE KEPT ME FROM BUYING AN "ATARI", THIS ONE WAS NO BEER FOR 2 WEEKS, THAT ONE WAS 3 MONTHS OF NO BEER, THE OTHER WAS 6 MONTHS NO BEER. BUT LOOK I'VE HAD THEM OVER 20 YEARS, AND CAN STILL USE THEM. HAD I BOUGHT BEER, THE LAST TIME I WOULD HAVE SEEN IT WOULDA BEEN A FEW HOURS AFTER I DRANK IT. IT WOULD BE OF NO USE TO ME 20 YEARS LATER! (I STOPPED DOIN' THE BEER THING IN 1986, WHEN I WAS STILL IN THE ARMY, AND GOT MARRIED)

THAT LAST LINK "IRON MAN" IS WHERE I HAD TO GO FOR A TRANSFER CASE, MINE LOCKED UP AND SPLIT THE CASE--BAD SNOW, I HAD TO TRAVEL 60 MILES TO MY MOM'S (ROUND-TRIP, IN "WILLY" W/ SUMMER TOP) AND GET MY HARD TOP, THEN BRING IT HOME AND MAKE IT FIT OVER "WILLY'S" SUMMER TOP HARDWARE. THEN I DROVE HIM ABOUT 130 MILES ROUND-TRIP TO "IRON MAN 4X4" TO GET A CASE.I DID HAVE MY HOMEMADE HEATER (THE "SAHARA BREEZE", I HAVE ONE IN MY CJ 5 ALSO, FOR EXTRA HEAT!)"WILLY" IS MY 1946 WILLYS JEEP, HE WAS ALL I HAD LEFT TO DRIVE (WIFES RIG WAS DOWN TOO, REVERSE WAS SHOT IN HER ESCAPE), TILL I GOT "MR. JEEP" GOING AGAIN.I TOOK A PIC AS I WAS LEAVING, YOU NEED TO FIND A PLACE LIKE THIS NEAR YOU. LOTS OF JEEPS AND TRUCKS ON SEVERAL ACRES. IT'S RARE TO FIND JEEPS IN A REGULAR OLE AUTO SALVAGE YARD.

YOU NEED TO PHYSICALLY CHECK AND TOP OFF YOUR FLUIDS IN THE ENTIRE DRIVE-TRAIN. I HAD SOMETHING, WE SUSPECT WAS A GLOB OF SILICONE SEALANT (PREVIOUS OWNER MUSTA USED TOO MUCH) GOT IN THE WAY OF MY LUBRICATING HOLES ON MY TRANSFER CASE'S TAIL SECTION, CASE WAS FULL OF OIL, JUST COULDN'T GET TO WHERE IT WAS NEEDED. AT 55 MPH IT LOCKED UP (ALMOST ROLLED OVER), TORQUED AND BROKE THE CASE, LACK OF OIL IS NOT A GOOD THING! SO CHECK YOUR STUFF, DO IT ON SCHEDULE!

WANNA SEE MY MODS? SEND MESSAGE
