Couple (potentially) questions to close out -
« on: August 23, 2008, 06:15:03 pm »
Ok - just got myself a '94 YJ 4cyl automatic -

Q1:  Checking the transfer case fluid level - is it the bolt between the output shaft and the tcase id tag?  If NOT then where the heck is it?  I can HEAR the tcase when I'm driving and presume that it needs some fluid added - never mind - already figured it out - but what size is that sucker - it's bigger than 1" (the largest socket in my set) Never mind - just found out it's 30mm

Q2: What do I put into the danged thing???  90W, 80W???? again - never mind - takes ATF

Q3:  when I FIRST start the Jeep and put it in reverse I get a whirring/light grinding sound - is this terminal for the slushbox?  Fluid level seems fine - after 20 min. of driving there's no noise going into reverse - apparently attributed to the t-case being 1PT low oin fluid - no more issues

Thanks much in advance -

Steve

I was going to answer your questions tonight since I spent some time with a co-worker down the street diagnosing her 90' YJ. Damn large metrics......Drained what little was left and filled the ATF in her, runs like a champ. Friday I'll change out those worn out, sloppy drive shaft u-joints for them. The things I do for FREE beer  ;)
