The FM145 in my Bronco 2 did that just before the transmission locked up. I had just bought it, and while test driving it, it made a loud metal crunching noise shortly after I put it in 5th. After stopping, the transmission was locked up in every gear. Stay out of 5th gear until you can get it fixed!!!

Everybody told me it was a throwout (release) bearing too. If it was a throwout bearing, wouldn't it do it in every gear?

Thanks Rusty, that helps quite a bit. I guess it needs an overhaul. probably about time anyway.
