87 wont drive :(

Post by cscott9016 »

Just got this 87 Bronco II for cheap, but wont drive, Possible transmission problem.

Its 5speed manual. It rolls in all gears (1st, 2nd,Reverse, and Nuetral) I can feel it want to move in 4WD, but it feels like something is stopping it. I was told to drain the tranny and transfer case to check for metal shards. (found 1 small one in tranny)

I'm thinking its a blown gear or maybe a shift fork?


Any input is appreciated.

I drained both fluids and refilled them.....now it drives :D . Maybe i washed something out of it, or maybe a filter problem. I'm still gonna look into it further. :confused:
