Re: Blown transfer case???????



A: More likely you have a rear axle shaft spinning in it's hub. Easy to 
check by removing the hubcaps (unless you have those aluminum rims with the 
tiny center holes) and putting it in gear. If you see the center nut turning 
and the wheel isn't (I suggest parking forwards against a VERY solid wall 
and giving just the slightest amount of throttle) that's the one that needs 
fixing. I just sold an XJ axle to a fellow to put in his '85 Eagle to cure 
that same trouble.

To: mail@xxxxxxxxxxxx

I have a 1984 Eagle wagon 4X4 with 51,000 miles.I
think I have blow the transfer case while trying to
get out of some very high snow and ice mixture,In two
wheel drive I can feel the car slip and make a moaning
noise and has a hard time going.I put in 4 wheel drive
and everything seems fine.My question is am I hurting
the car anymore by driving it in 4 wheel drive for
about 2 more weeks until I get it fixed.I drive maybe
5-10 miles a day.
Thank you for your time.
