4.0

locked up tight.

Pulled plugs, nothing
put a 3/4" on the front and tried all i could to get it to turnover and it wouldn't budge either way....


motor done?

[dan58]

Huh? This still makes no sense to me. It ran fine. :doh: You were only nose down in that hole for a minute.

[BBoarder]

long enough i'd say

[dan58]

Stupid transmission. :dan1: Hell, we checked it before the course.

sux

Make sure that you are not "gear bound" also. Maybe the trans is locked up tight and not letting the motor turn.??:confused:
Probably not, but maybe.......

i've tried starting it in every gear in the trans and transfercase
