Hi newb here just bought a 97 1500 sport with 79k miles I think I got a good deal regardless of the tranny problems.... Ok so here goes the guy I got it from towed skid steer and 5 attachments Bout 300 miles next day had tranny problems and parked it for a year and now here I am with the problem on my hands..... When first started it will shift into reverse and drive I didn't try to drive it because I didn't want to push it back. But after it warms up gears will not engage at all. Tranny has a whine or buzzing sound like its trying to grab a gear but just cant..... When he first explained it to me he told me 2 hi was all the way down on the shifter all though after looking in the manual 4 lo is all the way down... So I'm unsure if he drove it all that way in 4lo and severely hurt the tranny or tcase.... Am I better off just throwing a new tcase in and goin from there or taking it to a shop and possibly end up being rapped with a new tranny or god knows wat any input is much appreciated.... Other info..... 5.9 motor 46rh transmission np231 tcase with 3.72 ratio this is my first dodge I have always wanted one and don't want it to be a bad experience thank you
