My Bone stock Wrangler. Took it out for some fun. Realized I might have an issue when the wave of water when over the windshield. The Jeep never stalled, but I did have to get pulled out. Got stuck on the tranny crossmember/skit plate. And I managed to fill the tranny with mud and water.

The water/mud was a good two/two and half feet deep.

Dang, Pat, who would have thought that little hole would have been so deep? What will you have to do to get the trans cleaned out?

ooh that sucks, I have a Jeep Cherokee that I got with that had the same issue happen, you're gonna have to drop the pan and drain it fill it drain it then i would put the money into taking to to a service shop and get it hooked up to a trans flush machine and make sure all that evil water is out of the trans

Well, I guess it's not a boat!!

In my experience, the tranny is one of those things that once you break and then fix, not matter what you do it just isn't as good as it once was...
