Reallly bad Grinding!!!
 
I have a really bad grinding sound when i go like over 15 mph, idk what it is for sure, i was thinking transfer case but i'm kinda a noob so im just wandering what it could be and how to fix it

We'll need alot more info than that if you want help.Like tranny t/c what you do with jeep like off roading etc.

Arey558 10-08-2010 03:59 PM

yeah sure, its an auto and an np231 and i recently got stuck in a mud hole when i was in 4-lo, when i got pulled out i coulndt keep my car engadged in any gear so i thought thats why it was grinding, so i fixed that and it stays in gears but it's still grinding

Thats the sound its making, any ideas??

rich 10-08-2010 04:41 PM

I have never heard that sound before? Is the linkage ok on the t/c, driveshafts arnt binding or anything?

Arey558 10-08-2010 04:42 PM

idk how to check the linkage or adjust it, thats what my initial thought was but idk how to mess with it

rich 10-08-2010 04:47 PM

Try the search function maybe you can get a picture of the linkage there will be something on it but it might take a bit of time to find I'll see what I can dig up to.

stuck like chuck 10-08-2010 05:01 PM

had to listen to the video more than once cuz it sounded like your exhaust at first.lol. i can tell you from what i heard when my transfer case went it sounded way different. the chain in mine was bouncing off the sides so it was a metal on metal sound. are you in 2wd or 4 wd when its making the noise?

Arey558 10-08-2010 05:01 PM

Yeah I couldnt find pics, there's a linkage adjustment bolt somewhere but idk where lol

Arey558 10-08-2010 05:09 PM

I was in 2wd but it does it in 4wd as well

rich 10-08-2010 05:16 PM

Long shot have you checked all the fluids?

Arey558 10-08-2010 05:19 PM

no but i guess i could, i dont feel like thats it though

rich 10-08-2010 05:22 PM

Most likly isnt but got to start some were.You dont have to do it I only suggested it.

Arey558 10-08-2010 05:26 PM

Arey558 10-08-2010 05:33 PM
