Ok so my 94 cherokee 4.0 5 speed starting making a couple terrible noises today that sounds like its coming from the transfer case but im not 100% sure thats where its at. The noise happens in every gear, when I give it gas it makes a constant squeaking noise that sound like a bad bearing kinda and then when i take my foot off the gas it turns into a constant clunking noise. it only makes the noise when in gear though, if I'm in neutral or i have the clutch in it makes no noise. Please help!

 

I'd have a look at the u-joints before worrying too much about the T-case.

 

i just replaced one of the front ones yesterday because it had a ton of play in it but it was my first time doing u joints so mabe i messed up the joint putting it in?

I dunno

 

I would also look at the ujoints first, they make a strange chirping sound when they are about to let loose. Put you jeep in nuetral and check them all for play.

 

ok so i checked all my u joints and they dont have any play in them..and i took out my front drive shaft to see if the new u joints were the problem but it still made the noise.

 

10 mm alien wrench to check fluid.

 

its a 30mm socket to get the fill plug off but i couldnt get it today. ill take it to my friends shop tomorrow hopefully and see what we can do.

 

well its full of fluid and its good fluid too. anyone else have any ideas?

 

can a video be posted ?

 

yea, ill make one tomorrow

 

have you check tranny fluid

 

no i didnt check that, i can do that tomorrow too

 

ok today i drained the tranny and there was almost no fluid in it, it barely covered the bottom of the bucket it drained into. i filled it back up with new fluid and it still makes the noise..ive barely driven it since the noise started so i hope my tranny is ok. and i took a video of the noise ill post it.
