Re: Jeep Cherokee
A clunking noise, popping out of some gears sometimes, bucking or
grabbing when starting out in 1st or reverse, gearshift moving a lot
when giving gas or letting off gas....
One way to check for it is to open the hood and have someone put it in
first, hold the brake really tight and ride the clutch to load the
engine up.
If the engine lifts on one side, check the mount. Then do the same in
reverse, again if the engine lifts on one side check the mount.
When doing this, if the back of the engine lifts or the 'tail wags' one
way in 1st and the other in reverse, suspect tranny mount.

Sounds like when I get up in the middle of the night to take a leak.

If the sounds are due to worn out "mounts," I'd suggest replacing them with the
1" lift mounts for your "motor" and 1" drop mount for your "tranny"...your wife
will appreciate the extra two inches...
