Yep, the transmission has apparently lost a bearing or something. It is making a loud knocking sound under acceleration in 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th. I have a free '91 sploder 2wd so I guess its time to start saving for an m5od with a trans case for a 4.0 swap?!?!

Pour a little sawdust in there to take up the clearances and sell it.

You do know that you can't just throw a transfer case on the back of that 2wd trans and go to town, right?
