It was supposed to have had a new stage three clutch in it I guess we'll see. Allow me to preface this with the statement that I know almost nothing about SRT-4's. Years ago I had a neighbor that had a Honda CVCC that would not move. Supposedly a friend changed the clutch and it did not help. Since I owed her some favors I told her I'd look at it. The clutch in that car was hydraulically operated, but did have provisions for adjustment at the fork. That was the only problem and it took me maybe 5 minutes to fix it. It had sat for years prior. Never assume the last "mechanic" in there had a clue. They say there are no such thing as a stupid question. They say there is always the exception that proves the rule. Don't be the exception.

If it was the clutch hydraulic slave cyl not working or the cable broke he could not put the trans in any gear with the eng running as it would be like putting and normal woking manual trans car in gear without pushing the clutch in. Which as we know is not going to happen. But I am sure the owner as we all do is appreciate your input. Let us know how you make out. Ron

Your trouble is most definately clutch related. I would first try to adjust it. If that is a no go you probably need a new clutch. Never believe what the seller told you, unless a trusted friend. Good luck and let us know how things turn out. I have mechanical Aptitude. I can screw up anything.

Go back and reread it, pay very close attention to the very last line I wrote. Ask your mommy for help with the big words. If you still cannot figure it out the first part was an allegory with the very last line the point of it. Again, mommy can help with the big words.

The weird part is I can grab ahold of the input shaft and hold it still and still spins the axle? I can even spin the axles in different directions by hand. Should I be able to do this? Really appreciate the help guys. I tried getting onto a srt4 forum for some reason it's not letting me be a member. 8467718-image.jpg (167 downloads)

All the parts to rebuild the transmission are either on back order or no longer serviced. Third gear pop out is a common problem with these transmission and that is why we have stocked up on them for the three cars we have. Now the poster has to tell a little more on what he has tried with the axles. Is it in gear or not when testing. Will it go into gear while running and still will not move. Will it go into gear when it is not running. Post all what you have done on one post. 1971 HEMI E BODY REGISTRY

He can get parts, knows what he is doing, and is very reasonably priced. www.tmzperformance.com 1996 Viper GTS - UGR Twin Turbo 1500RWHP, 9.02 @ 167 on pump gas and DOT tire 1973 Challenger - 572 Indy Hemi 860HP 1975 Trailduster Convertible, 440 1967 Plymouth Fury Police Pursuit 2DR 505 Stroker 2004 Neon SRT4 modded www.milwaukeemopar.com

Needed to open it up to get the broken tab off the selector laying inthe bottom of casing. Gears didn't get damaged so that's good. Turned out to be a cheap fix. 8470665-image.jpg (448 downloads)
