desertdirk Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 1985 GL pulling out of a parking lot I lost all my gears in front wheel drive. It sounds like they are stripping out when I let out the clutch in any of the gears. When I put the selector in 4WD lo I have all gears and all is fine. what happened and what is the fix? thanks Dirk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted December 13, 2010 Share Posted December 13, 2010 One of your front hubs stripped out - the axle is spinning in the hub. This happens largely because of improper axle nut torque, worn corn washers that will not seat, etc. Take it apart, clean the splines on the axle, replace the hub and cone washer, and reassemble - make sure the cone washer has no burrs, etc and apply a decent amount of anti-seize to it prior to installation. Torque to 150 Ft/lbs. GD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
