Be aware the New Venture 3550 gears comes apart, and will jam in
neutral, usually in the middle of an intersection. They break at the

Re: 2000 TJ transmission problem
 

Well we had a sound that could be described the same when we tore an

This allowed the engine to shift over enough that the exhaust pipe was
hitting on the front driveshaft u-joint. It only hit under throttle.
