Ever since we got the car 5th has always popped out so I learned to hold it in for now. Now a new problem has come up where 4th gear will not come out at all. When I shift into 4th all feels well but when I try to take it out I have to stop the car and really jar the crap out of the stick to get it out. When moving it'll grind like it's trying to go into 2 gears at once. While driving I can get it out of 4th sometimes but then it won't go into any other gear. REally takes a hard time with the stick to get it to free up. The stick has always acted like it had a little slop in it but I've always passed that up. When the gear stuck in 4th I tried using the levers on top of the tranny to work it out but 1 HOT MOTOR and 2 Configned space and 3 not budging kept that from happening. Any ideas?
Since 5th gear needs replacing anyway and the 4th gear sticking proble may be a bent fork I'm looking to just replace it. What all tranny's swap over?
Here's what I know so far after searching... Dodge avenger (years???) Chrysler Sebring (years???) Talon esi and eclipse rs / gs 95 -99 and Dodge neon but have to swap out bell housing.
