1996 Explorer XLT
Im pretty new to this site but from what I can see there are many people willing to help, and was wondering if you could help me out I have read many trans, tc forums and am still having trouble to give you a little background I bought a 96 explorer XLT v6 4.0 control trac with 195k miles from a friend who was the only owner he was having problems with the tranny had that replace with one from a junkyard drove that for some time and started having problems shifting also had grinding noises he had the X sitting in his yard for the summer and when I came to look at it we tried to move it he put it in reverse it moved a few feet and we heard a loud grinding noise and that was it the X would not move anymore it starts you can put it in any gear and nothing happens you can put it in drive and rev the engine but cant go any where this happens in all gears I was hoping someone could tell me what this might be or what I can do to pinpoint the problem before buying a new tranny or tc and end up not needing it I appreciate any help or feedback I can get srry so long

No I havent done anything yet I just bought it and didnt now what to start with
 






i didnt know if there was a checklist of things to look at first before I get into anything major
 






One of the first things to do is to check the fluid. The next step is to try to adjust the bands to see if they are broken. The next thing would be to drop the pan to see if there are any broken parts.
 






sorry im not used to how this works so if it takes a min for me to respond sorry
 






how often do these forums get checked I mean if I get off now and tommorow when I get on will there be someone to speak to when I have checked the fluid and pan
