Drove all the way back from Ft Wayne and in Goshen the tranny just died.

No gears, foward or backwards. Any ideas??????

check torque converter bolts/flex plate

tim also check transfer case to see if it didnt pop out of gear . i can stop by after the meetin and lookie see

tranny filter and fluid change?...had that happen years ago on some late 60's and early 70's cars and a early chevy truck....

has it been slipping at all?

Only thing I noticed is of course the slow take off after sitting over night, but that only lasted a few seconds coming out of the garage. On the way back it seemed a little slow at take off from stop lights but shifted fine. When we got to Goshen, at a stop light I surged forward a little a few times so I dropped it into N and when the light went green I put it back in drive, it took off very slow and then nothing at all. Thought it was low on fluid, put 2 quarts in and still nothing. Now it's 2 quarts too much. Got underneath on Sunday, can't find anything disconnected, no leaks. Since my beater dies, this is now my DD so I need to get it fixed ASAP. Did some research yesterday and found out it's a Torque Flight 999 aka 32RE, used up to 2002 on YJ's and TJ's.

Tim, any luck finding a tranny?You are more than welcome to ride up with us Sat if you haven't had any luck...let me know...if you need a ride to go get parts or a tranny give me a bump.

Thanks George. Bandit and I will pull it tomorrow. Hope to have time to get it to Swamps buddy tomorrow night or Thursday afternoon so he can get to it. Don't really see me back on the road or off of it till mid next week at the latest. Do you have a navigator?

yeah, Chris is off sat now, but you are welcome to ride along...although the back seat may be a bit uncomfortable....
