NV3550 swap questions/problems

Diablo · 2008-09-14T15:34:26-04:00

I bought a used NV3550/np231 with 58k from a guy doing an auto swap into his TJ. Jerry and I (whatevah) worked on getting it in yesterday. It's all bolted up and the only issues we found are that the rear driveshaft is too long, there is a crazy amount of play coming from the shifter, and it whines when the clutch is not depressed. So my questions are: Why would the shifter have so much play? and Other than the throwout bearing, why would the transmission whine when the clutch isn't depressed? Once you step on it, the whine goes away. When we were bringing it home it lost quite a bit of fluid and I never topped it off. Could that have something to do with the whining noise? Also, neither of the driveshafts are hooked up right now and they weren't when we were testing it. Not sure if that could have anything to do with the noise. :shrug: Jerry might want to elaborate on this since he was under the Jeep while i was working the clutch. Thanks in advance for any input/help. :wavey:

Thanks! That is where I thought you guys saw it. Oh well! Guess I'll replace that someday.
