transmission help ASAP!
 

So I was shifting from 4th to 3rd and all of a sudden the RPM goes up like I am in neutral. I leave it in gear and coast to a stop and the car doesn't stall. WTF? I shift into gear and accelerate and the speedometer goes up but nothing happens?! The shifter feels normal and the clutch feels normal. I look under the car and don't see anything dangling. What could it be? When I shift into gear and step on the gas I hear some faint grinding noise and the car wont move at all. Any ideas?

i had the same thing happen to me but i a distinctly big problem with my clutch....i couldnt get it off of the floor.....but ur problem i have no idea....get one of the tranny guys on here to help hopefully.....its a very down sick to your stomach feeling....and whatever you do dont go to AAMCO unlesss ur realy flexible and like grabbing ur ankles

inspected your driveshaft connections to both the tranny and the diff? if all is well with the driveshaft then i would say something internally with the tranny went bye-bye.

Black 13B, you were right. The driveshaft broke. :(

you didnt notice that when you looked under before???

im not flaming you or nething just kinda odd not to notice something like that

It was 4am and I was too toasted to notice.

Check for a broken drive shaft, or you wore the material off the clutch and it needs to be replaced.

did you actually break the driveshaft itself

where? at one of the u-joints? if its just one of the u-joints itself that broke, you can replace it.. otherwise im afraid youll have to get a whole new shaft.. it is unlikely to bust right in the middle..

maybe i can dig up that thread where that guy was selling replacement u-joints..

kevin landers sold me a driveshaft for my car for 50 bux. goto his web site or pm him his name is hypntyz

I thought the stock u-joints couldn't be replaced?

so did i..
