Thread: Has my Auto pooed itself ???

Yeah Its moving, not moving the way it should..reving out for little speed.
I'll give the transfer a seeing to tomorrow.
It took me long enough to clear the layers of mud on top of the transfer and auto
from many a mission just to look over all the linkages.

Thanks fellas will post outcome of transfer tomoz.

no unusual sounds.
Yep slipping could be said. It is going nowhere fast.
I would have thought if it was going to stuff up the low would have gone also.

Hi Wollapit85,
Just wondering, have you smacked in your trany sump , if the oil pick up is hard against the sump it might not be able to suck up enough fluid, just my 2 bob.
Hope you fix it quick.
Yours Mark

from what youve just told me......that eliminates the transfer......
the reason it moves in low range......is because what little power is being produced from the box......
is finding it easier to move the rig in low range due to the gearing.......

i would go back to the transmission and start looking there......its either in the box or the torque converter.......

you say it makes no difference which gear you are in.......?
1st....2nd.....D......R.......?

you have a box full of neutrals......?

going from worse to bad.

stripped the primary clutch pack
stuffed the sprag in the stator
folded the vanes of the impellor or the turbine.
clagged relief valve on the pump dropping the internal pressure
TPS waaaayyy out of adjustment/TPS valve not playing the game.

you dont want it to be anything else....

but in any circumstance other than the last 2 your looking at a box pull and ID be thinking full rebuild.

a quicky pressure test on the box will reveal whats what in the case of the last 2.

I was out playing on Sunday and and came across a nice steep rocky track.
Had a crack at the hardest line which involved a rock ledge about 1-1.5mtrs tall didn't
make it so reversed and had another crack at it. While the front was up and the back was pig rooting the ground the rangie stopped. I tried to restart, would kick over but not start..thought it was a fuel issue. Anyway winched backwards down the track to level ground to sus it all out, could not find problem and got a pull to the pub on main road where rangie was trayed back home.

Next day found busted wire to dizzy hiding in sheath...beaut nothing serious I was jumping with joy.

Got a jump as my battery was a bit low and it started up no worries went to chuck it in drive and nothing.

Ran the selector through the gears for a while and still nothing. No forward or reverse.
Put the CDL in to low (not locked) and it goes.....very slow reving at about 3k.

I have gone over all the linkages and are all fine and intact.
One of the transfer case mounts is busted..but it is still in position.
The rangie is 3.5v8, 3 speed auto, lt230t transfer case.

Thanks any ideas to diagnose the problem would be great.

Did you remove the tailshaft when being towed to the pub, if not you have probably stuffed the g/box, Regards Frank.
