Jeep Wrangler Sport 2000
Hello,
I guess I have been running my 2000 Jeep Wrangler Sport 4X4 too hard. I fried the transmission. Anyone know how much it costs to get it replaced/fixed? I live in the Boston, MA area. Anyone know of a cheap honest mechanic? |

What did you do to the tranny? Fill it with water?
It is unusual to hear about them trashed.... Mike 86/00 CJ7 Laredo, 33x9.5 BFG Muds, 'glass nose to tail in '00 88 Cherokee 235 BFG AT's Canadian Off Road Trips Photos: Non members can still view!

I'm not sure what happened. It started happening during this winter in
Northern New Hampshire. On colder days it slipped more and more and eventually quit. I checked the fluid level and it was fine. I even had the fluid replaced and it continued to get worse. I drove it much in 4 wheel drive mode to help me in the snow. It's not the transfer case though, but the main transmission. Any ideas? Mike Romain wrote: > What did you do to the tranny?

Yes it's a 5 speed automatic. The jeep will not move at all at this
point. Mike Romain wrote: > Is it an automatic or 5 speed? > > 'Slipping' implies an automatic.
