i now have no reverse. also, once i get to around 50 mph, the t-case knob slips out, leaving me in neutral. strangest thing of all is that all transmission gear positions (including neutral & reverse) have become forward gears. this all happened after spendnig the day in 4L cdl any help would be greatly appriciated... |

I would first check out your transmission shifter cable or linkage. I have never looked at mine but from the sounds of you problem I would start there. Then on to the transfercase linkage. Sounds like it could have gotten bent and now no longer shifts completely into the normal postion |

Sounds like sprag failure.... Kyle |

In addition to Shane's suggestion a failed motor/ mount would be the first thing I would CHECK. Sprag failure would not cause the positions to be wrong or the T-case to jump into neutral but would cause a loss of reverse. please post back and let us know Ron |

Sprag failure would cause it to go forward no matter where the selector was... Either that or the planet assembly... Kyle |

And because the shifter is cable I highly doubt a motor mount would have any affect on it. The cable doesnt really care where the trans and engine are.... Kyle |

If you have a reputable trans shop near you take it in and have them do the check for you. Both of those failures I mentioned earlier are fairly catosrophic but you wont really know till someone takes a look. There is a rangie trans for sale in the for sale section right now as well. Kyle |
