Re: AX15 Transmission Repair
 

Hi Dave,
Remember, you may have forgotten the noise reverse makes normally,
because of it's machined straight gears, where the forward gears are cut
at an angle to be constantly meshed. It's always a good idea to change
fluids, if you've ever been off-road, using 75W-90, GL-5 gear lubricant
or equivalent.

Re: AX15 Transmission Repair
 

Nah, this is my daily-driver, Bill... I know the the normal sounds...
(if you can call a busted muffler normal :) ) Now reverse has a
distinct grind in a recurring pattern. Before, if had any pattern, it
would be the jeep's suspension rocking back and forth a little after
the initial hitting of the gas pedal.. which is normal, ..

It's definitely yucked up somehow.. I'll post more when I know it.

Thanks!

I'm going to be taking the trans out tonight, and I plan on replacing
my clutch-plate (why not) & rear-main seal (has a sliiiight leak) while
I've got everything taken apart. .. A question to those who have been
here before me ... Is there anything else that is a good idea to
replace / inspect while I've got the transmission out?
