Help! Big Trans Problem
 
I drove the truck and parked it. When I got back in and put it in gear it would not move. When I put it back in park it makes a grinding clacking noise. It wont move under power in any gear however it rolls freely in all gears.
Any ideas?
2003 Disco 2. 87,000 miles. Recent top end rebuild.

are you sure its a transmission problem? have you had the drive shaft rebuilt? have you climbed underneath the truck?

transfer case is in neutral or something in the driveline is broke.

if you pull the parking brake and it still rolls it is in the rear, if it stops it from rolling it is in the front.

Doesn't the parking brake lock the driveshaft? I find your answer somewhat bewildering, please explain.

He is saying the parking brake locks the rear driveshaft so if the truck rolls with the parking brake on the rear shaft is broke.

I bet your front driveshaft let go, look under the truck you will be able to tell if somethings wrong.

If it can roll, you can push it off something. Just a thought.

And from my experience it doesn't sound like a tranny issue. I think you could be looking at a transfer case issue(Not in gear/locked).
