I'm trying to troubleshoot my tranny problem before I start taking apart my truck.I was driving home and heard a load clicking sound from the tranny, next thing i know theres a hard core grinding sound and i was a sitting duck. Tried to put it in 4x4 thinking it was the thrid member but sat there grinding. If anyone any clue where to start it would be most appreciated.

The front and rear drive shafts spin fine, i thought it was my rear u joint because it has been making squeeking when i put it in reverse. It went away a few of days ago. I also found a worn motor mount.

Also its grinding when put it in gear, the only problem i had previous i that 5th gear grinding, but i heard that has always been a problem with the L52
