Good evening, everyone!
I was asked ny a friend to reinstall his overdrive unit in his Cherokee this weekend. He was recently injured and could not assist me, other than lending moral support from his wheelchair.
I was unable to get the overdrive unit mated to the bellhousing of the tranny, lacking about one inch until it mated. I feel all the splines were aligned but couldn't physically push the unit all of the way.
There was a thin metal rod justing out from the tranny..could that be stopping the unit from mating completely? I was hesitant to use any force.
Do we need an alignment tool of any kind or just a big hammer? :-)
Thanks in advance!
Pat
