Transmission idk what :(

Btw, this is a quote from a post I made the day you posted this suv on the forums. It is from 11-24-2007

"Get the transmission rebuilt/replaced with a 5 speed. A4LD's are bound to fail, and its gonna cost more down the line. Looks in excellent shape though, I love mine!"

Drop the pan, see if there is any metal in it.

Well guy's found out what it is . It's the spider in the rear end more then likely. My neighbor came over that had done hot rod rear end's constanlty when he was younger built race car's etc. He said more then likely that the spider gear in the rear end is stripped out. Once we pull off the rear end cover there will probably be metal shaving that fall out of the actual rear end. because the spider gear stripped out. So gonna go to junk yard 2morro and hopefully find a rear end for my truck. really hoping we can find one also.

That is not what it is, Think about that, and think of why it would not make sense.

Did you do what I suggested? If not, your wasting you time.

The spider gear has nothing to do with the ****** not engaging in gear.

No grinder it is engaging in gear u can hear it when u shift into reverse. It's like something is locking it up.

Well then you are being far too vague with your description. The rear end may be the problem then. Could be the transfer case if it's 4wd. All I can say is good luck and you should have got a Chevy. My truck is 34 years old and I run the shit out of it. Rear end is fine. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif But seriously, that sucks. I would go brand new rather than junkyard because the junkyard parts will fail way before the new ones.
