Talking Troubleshooting 231J TC

Ok, I have come to the conclusion that something is going awry inside my TC. So this weekend, I am pulling the front cover off and looking it over.

First this I am checking is the chain. I think it might be stretched.

What other things should I check while I am in there? Other than the obvious wear and tear on the gears (worn or broken teeth... etc).

I only want to do this once if I can help it.

(The reason I am looking is that it is making a clanking noise and I can visibly see the yoke jerk when it does. All u-joints and cv joints look good so I think maybe the chain is slipping).

Thanks!

Sounds like the chain. Mine did the same thing. You would be smart to do the chain & Gears at the same time...Tj

Do you know which gears? Trying to buy everything I need and just going to take back what I don't have to use.
