Same thing happened to me in a 90 YJ, except I heard a little, "ting" noise
just before it happened.
Ran it for a week using first through fourth, but would occasionally hear
some metal sliding around.
I forget what the shop told me, but since the transmission had over 125,000
miles on it, I went with a new one.

At last! Someone understands why I hate to work on cars on my time
off. The work I do on the Harley's relaxes me...when I have to work
on a car, it just pisses me off.

This one's got around 175k on it. I suppose a master rebuild kit is
not out of the question, although it's not given any trouble up to
now, nor did it whine or make any funny noises before 5th let go.
