Got a sweet deal on a Terrafirma TF837 steering damper at $76.27 and $40 for shipping from LRDirect in Bristol, UK. It got here to Georgia via DHL in 3 days!
I’m going to install it this weekend.

Angry I think I blew my transfer case

so I pulled a family that was stuck in a ditch with there Camry, I used my winch but it started to pull me towards there car due to the snow and ice on the road, so like a dumbass I put the D2 in reverse and winched and reversed at the same time, needless to say after I got them out of the ditch I put mt truck in drive and it barley moved, reverse and got nothing it grabs a little in drive but not enough to drive . Any suggestions on if it’s my transfer case trans or diff would be very highly appreciated

Can you switch from High to Low (or vice versa)?

It’s hard to switch but in low or high I still can’t really move

If I rev it high and let the rpms dro, on the deacceleration it will kick in to gear for about a second around 2k rpms

had similar symptoms recently. Turned out to be torque converter. It’s rare for the Trans to go out in these.

Makes it’s worth it to put a rebuilt trans with new torque converter or just buy a new torque converter? I appreciate the help Dave

The lift made a big difference on my truck, love the way it feels. Does anyone know where I can get a torque converter besides roverland, they want like 3k for a torque converter, I tried autozone however there vender is out of stock.

Victory Dance!!!

After snugging up the bolts of the rear sunroof frame and glass panels, NO leaks on my 2000 D2 SE7. Just need some 3M 77 to clean up a bit of sagging and good to go.
