That's a very cheap lesson to learn not to drink and drive. Glad it wasn't a bystander that made your jeep stop.

Problems? New transmission, probably new axle gearing, and no money for any more beer

Wears down/could break the Parking Pawl (parking pin) which would make it not stay where you left it when parked on hills.....

If it's not grinding or slipping leave it alone. Change the fluid in case there's metal shards in it

wow. if by 'we' you mean 'I' got pretty wrecked, and then drove...well i just hope your tranny blows up. cause you totally deserve it, you ****ing stupid sack of braindead ****.

if you weren't drunk and driving, sorry for calling you names, but, well that'll teach you for letting knuckle dragging cro-magnons into your jeep anyways.

hoping for latter and not former here...

If you were driving " wreck" I hope the tranny grenades while you're sitting above it. I lost my dad just after boot camp to a POS drunk driver.

Bro you need to calm it down. We've all made mistakes and I know youre no saint. What he did was stupid but he doesn't need to get lashed by y'all. Still no excuse for drivin DUI. Hopefully a mod will see that and you'll learn a lesson.
