Yes it is.

I am no mechanic but I don't think an electrical misfire would cause a clank/clunk prior to issue. It sounds mechanical to me.

It takes 250,000 miles for them to start breaking in.

Only 11 quarts of ATF One of the first things I did prior to removing the transmission was to drain and then drop the pan. I did this twice before removing the transmission and both times I got a substantial amount of transmission fluid out of it. I disconnected the transmission hoses that went...

Broken Torque Converter Broken torque Converter - Album on Imgur

What color would the factory torque converter in 2001 be? The one in this vehicle appears to have a nice silver or gray paint job on it.

I found another person that had a problem like mine. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/torque-converter-stem.918802/ I ordered another torque converter, transmission filter and gasket, enough ATF to flush entire system, new radiator.

I used to own a printing company with very large machines. One day a lever inside a machine broke. It was a piece of cast that had a cam and eccentric mounted to it. I looked up the part and had it overnighted to my facility. The next day I put on the new part. After putting on the replacement I...

Just as I suspected. The broken piece came off the front edge of the torque converter around the place where the nipple of whatever you call it goes into the engine. I got out all the fragments. How important is it that that section be completely intact? I wonder what caused it to break.

Since piece of metal was found outside the transmission behind inspection cover, my uneducated guess is that it is not inside the transmission. I am no mechanic, grease monkey, or gearhead. I struggle to keep things going. I can only speculate from what little experience I have that it probably...

We checked all the bolts from the flexplate to the torque converter and they were all tight. Did not see anything that seemed obviously wrong with flexplate. Watched and listened to noise with engine running under load from under vehicle. Did not see anything that pointed to solution. What is...

Yes 4wd. Where is the dampner? What does it look like? Rattle/grind sure sounds like it is coming from inside bellhousing though. Did you see that chunk of?? that came from behind inspection plate?

Hello, Recently have a noise. The noise is only when in gear forward or reverse. Sounds like something rattling around. Noise not in neutral or park or while coasting in gear. Noise happens even when in D or R not moving with brake on. Pulled inspection plate and found piece of what appears to...

Agreed. Won't go on road unless quality welding is done! If I finish I will post pictures.

Thanks for all the constructive criticism. I agree with the welding. I will grind it all down and weld at my friends. I will post pics of the re-weld after I get it done. He has a much nicer 220 welder that will lay an awesome bead with ease. I should have just tacked it and brought it to his...
