1991 Drivetrain Prob

[Burns]

Ok to start off ill try to give a background on what it going on...

First i had pulled the tranny to do a rebuild and that went well. At the same time we decided to replace the 4.0 with another one because of mileage. New Clutch and everyting. I put it all back together and wanted to drive it really bad. Here was the prob. The rearend had dropped a carrier bearing and now i need to replace the ring gear and pinion and I still wanted to drive it really bad. So I locked in the front hubs and took out the rear drive shaft out just to give it a little test run. The prob is that when driving it someting is wrong. I was in third gear i think and it quit pulling so i let off the gas and it seemed to kick back in. I thought that it had to be a hub prob so i pulled both hubs and replaced them with another set. There is no noise when it kicks out. What could be wrong here? Im at a loss.

shift fork adjustment...this turned my buddies dodge in to a 2 speed (pops out of all odd gears..1,3,5)

 

[Burns]

prob is it will do it in 2nd so that kicks out the odd gear idea.

 

[Mud Bug 94]

no it can happen to any gear depending on te shift fork arrangement...my buddies blazer did it in 1,2,4,and R...it all depends in the which fork is bent/misadjusted.

hows ur clutch adjustment?...i noticed its new.

 

[Burns]

The clutch is fine. Its not in the tranny and not in the front end so it has to be a transfer prob.

 

[Burns]

there has to be another answer to this....

 

[Mud Bug 94]

the t-case chain too loose? ever ride a quad with a bad chain when it skips a tooth it jerks......

 

[Burns]

its something with the transfer. I just put it in there from a ranger but i have never had one do this. When i first did my sas i drove it on the front end for a week and it never did this. This is a diffrent transfer so it might be bad.

 

[Mud Bug 94]

y did u swap?

 

[Burns]

the orginal transfer quit pulling the rear axle but would pull the front in 4lo. Its weird i know. This one may have had a prob for a while and i have not noticed it till now cause im not using my rear end for now.

 

[Mud Bug 94]

pull the original one apart and rebuild it.

 

[Burns]

i have two of them apart in my garage floor lol i just need some parts...Did you know these transfers have a oil pump in them.

 

[Mud Bug 94]

yea, its weird some even have stators on the output shaft
